Moving To Costa Rica
There are many aspects of moving to Costa Rica to consider, not the least of which is getting you and your belongings here. Moving your life to a foreign country can seem like a daunting task. Actually, it is a daunting task, but only if you insist on doing it alone. Like anything, it’s the advice you get and homework you do that can make the process easy and uneventful in this otherwise stressful time of your life for you, your family and your pets. If you’re in the early stages of investigating just how to make this move and finding out how much it will cost... we always recommend you contact a local Costa Rica mover specializing in international clients that is experienced in shipping door to door from North America to your home in Costa Rica. Be sure to ask them for a list of references from their clients. Experienced moving services such as these will always have information readily available to share with you such as:A handy check list, usually with stuff on it you’d never think of:
- An outline of your moving costs

- Advice on what is practical to pack and ship, and what’s better to simply sell and replace
- Advice on special shipping needs like fragile items and personal things
