Relocation to Australia
Your reliable partner for Relocation to Australia. Koch Umzugslogistik – for 125 years.
Australia is one of the most demanding destinations for international relocations – and Koch Umzugslogistik has the expertise to match. Australian biosecurity rules are strict: all wooden packaging must be ISPM-15-certified, and every item is checked for organic residue. Our packing team knows these requirements and packs your household goods to export standard.
Transport to Australia is by sea freight – as a full container (FCL) or groupage (LCL). Transit time is around 6–8 weeks to Sydney or Melbourne. For urgent shipments we offer air freight (7–10 days). Our IAM-certified partners in Australia handle customs clearance and deliver straight to your new address – whether in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane or Perth.
