The famed personalities and their pick on moving….

An employee may be relocated by his employer to a different country or an individual might decide to work for a different company, resulting in a change of place. If change of residence is complex, change of country will be a touch higher than that. To enable easy relocation from one country to another, the services of a company providing International relocation services will be required. An experienced service provider will be capable of managing complications which may arise in the process. It is near to impossible for a below-par relocation company to pull off an international relocation. Perfect knowledge about procedures, laws, and experience in the industry, infrastructure and trained employees to handle situations are very important for smooth international relocation. Relocation companies usually provide other services like school search, home search, and immigration.

So what do famous personalities and writers say about moving from one place to another?

“A ship in harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for.”

-  John Augustus Shedd

Moving to a new place has its complications, so do we decide against any relocation? No, when it is required to move, we need to consider it as an opportunity and utilize it.

 -

"We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we're curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths."

― Walt Disney

Moving forward and going to new places is a sign of development. It means you are ready to grow and learn. Be curious and you will never stop growing.

 -

“When you travel, remember that a foreign country is not designed to make you comfortable. It is designed to make its own people comfortable.”

– Clifton Fadiman

Will you be perfectly alright in your new place? Not at all. The knowledge about the new place will enable you to understand it and make yourselves feel at home. Lack of knowledge could lead to intolerance and irritation. So you have to decide from where you have to obtain the knowledge.

 -

“A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step.”

– Lao Tzu

So you may think that your life is going to change rapidly by change of place. How would you move towards your new life? You cannot jump into the change, but you can undertake your journey, one step at a time. When you move from a country to another, it is important that you take every step in the right direction and in the right way. Expertise in moving can help you by a large extent.

 -

"Moving on, is a simple thing, what it leaves behind is hard."

- Dave Mustaine

Moving from a place to another can look simple and complicated at the same time. What you leave behind is hard. It could either be emotional or material bondages. The struggle of acclimatizing to the new environment and the things you need to dispose of while moving from a place can become a tricky situation. An expert can guide you through the process in an efficient manner. The decision to move an item or leave it behind is crucial in making the moving easier. Expert advice is what you need.

 -

“Move to a new country and you quickly see that visiting a place as a tourist, and actually moving there for good, are two very different things.”

― Tahir Shah

If you are settling in a country and still behaving like a tourist, you are losing a lot of good experiences you could have got. If you prefer to be a visitor, you will surely feel alien to the environment.

 -

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness.”

– Mark Twain

Your narrow-mindedness gets shattered and your prejudices become the fatality. Be prepared to be surprised and shocked. That is what Mark Twain says.

 -

“If you reject the food, ignore the customs, fear the religion and avoid the people, you might better stay at home.”

– James Michener

 “One’s destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.”

 – Henry Miller

A change of place is nothing, unless you start living the new life. If you relocate to heaven and still want to live the life of hell, your life will not become better.

 -

 “Travel and change of place impart new vigor to the mind.”

– Seneca

A change of place can bring a change in how you see things. When your perspective changes, you will have new thoughts and you will be able to innovate.

 -

"When you’re traveling, you are what you are right there and then. People don’t have your past to hold against you. No yesterdays on the road.”

 – William Least Heat Moon

Your mistakes are unknown and your sins are forgotten. Your past does not haunt you, but you still have your experience to build a better future. It is a new opportunity that life gives you.

 -

"Have no fear of moving into the unknown. Simply step out fearlessly knowing that I am with you, therefore no harm can befall you; all is very, very well. Do this in complete faith and confidence."

― Pope John Paul II

Relocating Pet, with no fret

“Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened.” 

- Anatole France

Loving an animal and soul awakening are being linked and this shows how serious people were about their pet animals

"We can judge the heart of a man by his treatment of animals." 

- Immanual Kant

A man’s kindness is being weighed by the way he treats the animals.

“The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated” 

-Mahatma Gandhi

According Mahatma Gandhi, the greatness of the nation is at stake, when you do not treat the animals in a proper way.

“Our perfect companions never have fewer than four feet.” 

-Colette

There are people who refuse to accept humans as their companions and consider their pets to be their perfect companions

“Animals are such agreeable friends - they ask no questions, they pass no criticisms” 

- George Eliot

The comfort level with animals is high to some and they feel it is impossible to agree with humans.  Complete harmony with their lovable pets.

“If you pick up a starving dog and make him prosperous, he will  not bite you; that is the principal difference between a dog and a man” 

-Mark Twain

Some go a step further and keep their trust only on their pets. They consider humans to be unpredictable and not-so trustworthy.

A Pet owner: To be or not to be

People usually get pets for companionship, to protect their place of living or because of the beauty of the animal. A pet lover will be prepared to face any task for his pet’s well-being. But if someone is not inclined to having pets they may see these hardships faced by the pet owner as tedious and useless. It just depends on how important your pets are to you and what are your priorities. The common reasons cited for not owning a pet are lack of time, limitations in the place of living and maintenance while travelling. If you love having a pet, you will eventually find a way to have a pet.

Benefits of owning a pet

Pet owners are less likely to suffer from depressions, abnormal blood pressure, anxiety and heart ailments. Owning a pet relaxes and calms one’s mind during stressful situations. Stress related health issues are less prevalent among pet owners.

Owning a pet or being a guardian?

Pet owning is being replaced by the concept of pet guardianship. Because it protects the pets from any abuse by its maintainer and make his/her liable for any damages caused by them.

Pet travelling and Relocations

The Pet Travel Scheme (PETS) is a system which allows animals to travel easily between member countries without undergoing quarantine. A Pet Passport is a document that officially records information related to a specific animal, as part of that procedure. The effect is to drastically speed up and simplify travel with and transport of animals between member countries, compared to previous procedures, if the regulations are followed. In some countries the formal passport is needed. Others will accept documentation in any form, so long as it is clearly evidential of the procedure being followed. Usually the animal and its papers are checked thoroughly both on boarding or export, and again upon arrival.

Reducing the stress of relocating

Pets may face stress and anxiety while they move to a new place. Cats are extremely sensitive about the change of place. A pet could be accommodated in a friend’s house or boarded at kennels or kept with a pet sitter. These options also result in unfamiliar situations to the pet. This is not an option when moving permanently. When moving permanently it’s better to consult with a relocation company which can provide pet relocation services. Availing a relocation company is very useful because you will be clearly guided about formalities, rules, regulations and local information about relocating a pet. The stress of relocating can be minimized and executing the relocation process can be handed over to the relocation company.

When moving to new place with a pet…

• Be aware of the temperature levels in the new place. It is very important to consult with local pet owners and veterinarians to receive information about providing easy transition for your pets.
• Identify ideal times for walking your pets, because your pets may face health problems while venturing out in unsuitable conditions.
• It is always important to get a feel of the level of pet animal tolerance of your neighborhood. Some neighbors may object to the presence of pet and country law may not be favorable to the pet owner. Make sure the pet has proper identification and keep it safely within the confines of the home or garden
• If your new place of living has stray animals, it is very important to keep your pets away from infection. The chances of your pet being seen as stray animal and being taken away is possible.
• Keep your pets away from plants which may cause them allergy.

Settling-in services: Assisting your baby steps

Relocation is not just a change of location, but it involves many other aspects. If the requirement was just to move from one place to another, the process would be simple. When the process of relocation commences there are cultural, emotional, social and personal factors which make the effort more complex. A human needs time to adapt to the new environment and in the same way when moving away from a place it is not a easy decision. Our memories and emotional bonding with the place will influence us. What if we are too excited about our relocation? Even this kind of scenario can make the move complex. An excited mind could neglect the finer points of relocating and there are chances of the excitement becoming panic. It is very important to plan the move in a very efficient way. Imagine a situation of uprooting a plant and moving it to some new place, is it just enough to carefully move it from one place to another? No. It requires more expertise than just moving it efficiently. The plant needs to be planted in the new environment with minimum or no ill-effects of the change in environment. Bridging the gap of living conditions will be the best possible solution for relocation. In the new age world, change is not an undesirable situation. It is usually seen as an avenue for opportunity and chance to grow. The requirement to relocate and necessity to adapt has grown manifolds in the era of rapid globalization. Few decades back, when we needed to relocate it was about meticulous planning, research work, spending time, packing, arranging a moving vehicle, coordinating the loading, taking care of the items while moving, coordinating the unloading and arranging the items in the new place. Any loss arising during the relocation process would be our responsibility and our losses will remain our losses. The requirements of the new location have to be met by us and if we do not have an acquaintance we would have to spend more time in fact-finding and research work. We may not afford to spend so much time in adapting to the new place and that is where the relocation company which can provide you complete relocation and settling-in solutions can help you in a great way.

There is a need to provide services which are unique and flexible, because every person will require different type of services.

Expectations when relocating: We heard them say….

A person seeking services for relocating has many concerns in his/her mind. Sometimes it is because of the lack of knowledge about the industry or the confusion to choose the service provider. Mostly it is not about choosing the best, but it is about the appropriate and best suitable for the situation. A consumer driven market has enabled an atmosphere of companies trying to convince the clients that they are the best. When the consumer is the King, the companies can’t go against their expectations. What does the consumer expect when he/she requires a relocation service? 

We asked people what are the things in their mind when they choose.

 “I would be concerned about the views of the people who used the company’s services. Their evaluation of the company would be a deciding factor. Safety of my possessions and smooth move would be my first priority and the price factor will be my second criteria.”

“The service provider needs to respect the time factor. The packing and delivery of items should be done on time. The company should also be a very reliable in the industry and efficient enough to handle my things with extreme care. I will also not tolerate a situation when company provides me a quote and charges me more than the amount quoted. I strongly believe that a good company will not miscalculate the cost of moving.”

“I will first consider whether the company will provide services for the price bracket I am looking for, if in-case they charge more than what I am willing to pay, I will check it is worth. The other factors would be end-to-end services, time taken for delivery, safety of the items and reputation of the company.”

“The quote provided by the company should be impressive and I would also go by opinion of people I know. A complete package of services, providing unpacking services and internet reviews will also be considered by me before I choose a company”

“Lower price is a very important factor when I opt for a relocation company, but I usually avoid the companies which quote prices well below the industry standards. Opting for such companies might turn out to be a risk.”

"The company should be a well-known and reputed. I will also be focused on the company's insurance policy, because incase of any damages to my items I would be able to recover some cost of loss. Though not a huge factor, price will also play a role in my decision-making."

"A Holistic service is what I expect from my relocation company. I would expect them to pack all the household things, except my clothes. The company should be very punctual about the delivery, because early delivery or late delivery might create issues when we are in a new place."

"Timely delivery, safety of my belongings and competitive pricing is what I will be looking at while engaging a packing and moving company."

"A quote which provides all-inclusive pricing will appeal to me more, because a detailed quote usually defines the professionalism involved in the company's functioning"

The general opinion about people seeking relocation services is that they are very focused about the reliability of a company and the opinion of their acquaintances. Though many base their decision on competitive pricing, they are also aware of the fact that price should not be the main factor in decision making. Timely service and holistic approach towards packing services have become the order of the day. A packing and moving company providing minimal services is being replaced by a trend of end-to-end solutions.

The Players

Companies providing end-to-end solutions for the relocating needs are Allied, Interem, Writer Relocations and few other FIDI affiliated companies. FIDI affiliated companies adhere high standards in providing services and so it is always better to choose them. While choosing any company for using their services thorough knowledge about the company's efficiency and resources is very important. Knowledge is always power.

Role of Interem

Companies like Interem are constantly raising the bar by providing higher standard of services. Their services include,

• Settling-in Services- which include Preview Trip, Orientation Program, Home Search, School Search, Immigration Consultancy (Foreign Registration & Visa Extensions) and Repatriation.
• Warehousing solutions for a possible delay in relocation plans.
• A specialized and expert handling of your prized art collections.
• Automobile relocation
• Professional pet handlers for relocating pets.

Relocation services have become a complete package. It is no wonder that the consumer is aware of the changing trend and demands higher standards in services. When selecting a service provider it is very important to evaluate the whole process and all the services provided. A right choice will save you from panic and uncertainties. When you have a map and you have chosen a good path, your journey will be pleasant. It is about taking the right decisions, for the right move with the right mover!
