Brilliant communication Very helpful emails and reasurance given for the moving of our house hold contents
Absolutely brilliant service from Mish, Melissa,Josh and Shane, well Done.
My Packing Team! – I would like to thank the boys who came into my home yesterday and packed it up to ship to New Zealand. Cory, Ben and Nathan did an amazing job and helped me with random questions I had. Added something to pack if they had already done the area. They literally worked with me being annoying. Awesome work! And highly recommend.
Great moving experience with OSS! – OSS provide exceptional service to their customers. Misha Hamilton has many years experience in the shipping business so she knows exactly what she is talking about. Moving from Oz to NZ involved taking our entire home as well as our motor home, motor bike and trailer and 2 cars. By no means was this a small move but we felt fully supported… Read more
through the entire process by Misha and the OSS team. Packing our home was done efficiently and professionally by Matt and Ronnie. Not only are the packers great at their job they are fun to be around and take the stress out of the move with their laid back attitudes and providing reassurance during any stressful moments. The administration was taken care of by Gabby who kept us up to date with all the paperwork side of the move. OSS also helped us with transport to NZ for our much loved cats by using their corporate partner ‘Jetpets’ who provided us with amazing service at a reasonable price (thanks again to Misha). Highly recommend OSS for your overseas move - do yourself a favour and go with the best in the business - OSS!!
Excellent swrvice, great packing material and awesome people – We moved our entire home from Brisbane to Chicago. After talking to many movers, realised that OSS was the priciest of them all. However their great online reviews backed them up and we decoded to go with them. Took 2.5 months for the goods to reach chicago. And oh man we were impressed. Let me outline some things that make it worth the extra… Read more

1. amazing packing skills and material - instead of a cheap bubble wrap, they use a covering that it buble plus plastic plus cloth, there’s no way moisture can go in. The packers were very skilled and took extreme care while packing smallest of the items.
2. Great communication - not just the OSS staff, Their counterparts in America were also Available when needed. They provided us a link to track our ship, which reduced the number of times we had to reach out and also provided a great comfort, knowing where our stuff was at any given point in time.
3. We were given a new invoice when the stuff arrived in the USA by their counterparts. However, it was reasonable because the house we took was three floors without any elevator.
4. The unloaders were very professional as well.
All in all, we were very proud of ourselves that we chose OSS for our move.

realised it they informed me and paid me back! Three guys came to deliver my belongings. They were so nice, cheerful and quick, friendly and polite . At the beginning of this journey, the consultant told me that they were not the cheapest but I would never regret. Yes, that was right. 100% happy!

Also very good communication and best of all, all our stuffs were undamaged! I would highly recommend OSS World Wide Movers for your international moving of stuffs. Cheers! Sylvester & Kate
We used OSS World Wide Movers for an international relocation (Australia to Gibraltar). The experience was extremely disappointing from start to finish. We were initially sold a maximum estimated storage/transit timeframe, but our shipment sat for months with repeated reassurances that dispatch was “imminent.” Updates were vague and inconsistent,… Read more
and we frequently had to chase OSS for basic information. What they communicated and promised us was never delivered
When our belongings did finally arrive after six months, multiple furniture items were damaged — those that were severely damaged were unfixable. Several pieces were chipped, smashed, or structurally compromised, and sentimental, irreplaceable items were broken. We were explicitly instructed not to pack anything ourselves because OSS would handle "professional" packing.
After all this and despite extensive photographic evidence, OSS refused to assess responsibility, stating that because advanced transit insurance was declined, the matter would not be reviewed “regardless of the nature or cause of the damage.” Damage was repeatedly described as “normal transit movement,” even where the extent of destruction was clearly inconsistent and not caused with minor vibration or wear.
The most concerning aspect was the position taken by OSS that service quality and packing standards are irrelevant if insurance is not purchased. Insurance may determine financial recovery, but it does not erase a mover’s responsibility to pack and handle goods professionally. The refusal to separate insurance coverage from basic duty of care was embarrassing on their account, and frustrating and disappointing on ours.
OSS referenced industry standards, but in our case there was no meaningful accountability when the outcome fell well short of professional expectations and denied all accountability.
Bottom line is that we lost thousands of dollars worth of precious items that we worked hard to obtain all because OSS does not respect the property of their customers nor how long it takes to get there. They possess an inflexible, dismissive approach to responsibility once problems arise, and while we cannot pursue legal action any further, we would not recommend OSS World Wide to anyone.

My household items were picked up in the last week of March 2025 for an international move to the UAE. After several months with no delivery and no clear updates, I requested that the shipment be re-directed to Singapore. Again, after months of inaction and no progress, I asked for the items to be returned to Australia. I was then charged… Read more
additional fees to send and return the items from Singapore, with the explanation that the shipment was already on board a vessel. It has now been over 10 months since the original pickup, and I am still trying to get my belongings back. Throughout this process: Communication has been unclear and inconsistent Responses are slow and often vague No confirmed delivery dates are ever provided Responsibility appears to shift, with little ownership of resolving the situation
OSS International moves are stressful enough, and this experience has significantly added to that stress. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this company due to the prolonged delays, lack of transparency, and ongoing uncertainty around delivery.

The evaluator and packing team operated to a high professional standard. The interaction was consistently polite and responsive to enquiries and acted promptly. This is my second shipment to the US with OSS and both met all my needs.

We recently moved from South Africa to Queensland Australia, a 3bed 2garage home needed to be packed up, shipped and unpacked on the other side of the world. The service from OSS was just amazing grom start to finish. The partner company they work with who packed up our house was well trained in what can/cant go to AUS, and communication and… Read more
planning was seamless. The shipping, transfer and unloading of boxes at the final destination was so quick. Our agent Gabbie was intouch with updates before we could even think to ask for them. Any shipping delay was communicated and the professionalism was top tier. Unpacking day was so quick. The team was on time and prepared for everything. We were honeslty blown away by the great service. They truly understand the stress of a move this big and try their best to make it as easy as possible.
Moving from Aus - NZ, from our first meeting/quote session to our container packing OSS have been incredible, can only imagine the massive work behind the scenes, everyone has been incredible, a very stressful period that they made so so easy, forever grateful to the team.
Best ever service was excellant in every way comuncation was between us and oss was allways fantastic packing crew was incrediable would highly recomend them and would use them in the furture
I cannot speak highly enough of the team at OSS. Jacqueline Marks especially was absolutely fantastic she is not only professional in all aspects, but she also kept us informed completely of our furniture from NZ to Maroochydore. The delivery crew was equally as great, nothing was too much trouble, and they were extremely helpful, in and out without any fuss.
Excellent service. Our mover was Shane Lyons. Can’t speak highly enough of him. The company was excellent throughout but Shane was exceptional. So professional and skilled. Extremely friendly and kind. Would highly recommend this service to anybody needing an overseas removal company. 5 stars.
Thank you to OSS for an outstanding long term storage service. Your efficient customer service has resulted in a smooth moving process. I would like to thank everyone at OSS for a job well done.

I'm really pleased with the service provided by Gabbie Doust during my move to Melbourne. She was really helpful in walking me through the documents requirement, understanding each of the stages of the shipment - how long will be the wait for each stages, and very clear instructions during the delivery as well. Totally pleased with the service Thank you OSS team and keep up the good job!

Moving to Thailand with OSS Movers – Misha and the Team from OSS have made our international move easy, seamless and most importantly stress free. The OSS Team constantly gives you feedback and reminders to keep you track of what you need to do and prepare for the move. Then we just sat back and let the OSS Team do the rest while we relaxed.
If you want a stress free move, look elsewhere – I had a deeply disappointing experience with OSS Worldwide Movers, and I feel compelled to share my frustration, especially regarding their lack of after-sales service and communication. Although OSS initially offered packing services for my belongings, the majority of my items were not packed at all. Instead, the cartons I had packed myself were… Read more
opened, with some crumpled butcher's paper placed on top and then re-taped. This lack of attention to detail was shocking, and it felt like they were cutting corners in a way that impacted the safety of my possessions.
When I raised concerns with the Brisbane branch, I was met with an unprofessional attitude from the branch manager. There was no sense of responsibility or concern for the services that had been promised but not delivered. The manager's communication was not only dismissive but also conveyed a complete lack of interest in resolving the issues at hand. It was incredibly frustrating.
Unpacking was another part of the contract, but this service was never provided. OSS's excuse was that my belongings were not being delivered to a home, so they don’t typically unpack anything. However, they couldn’t point to any part of the contract that mentioned this limitation. It was a flimsy excuse and added insult to injury.
As for the packing itself, it was shockingly inadequate. Many delicate and antique items were poorly packed, resulting in substantial damage to them during transit. I had trusted them with these items because they advertised superior care and attention to detail, but the reality was far from that. When I attempted to claim compensation through their insurance, OSS refused to pay the excess, despite their responsibility to ensure the safe transport of my goods.
Additionally, I was hit with unexpected charges for MPI inspection. OSS claimed that the New Zealand agent (NZ Movers) needed to add costs to cover their expenses for delivery into NZ. However, when I contacted MPI directly, I was told that the fees they were charging me were far higher than what MPI had actually charged them. This was yet another example of unnecessary upcharges.
In short, my experience with OSS Worldwide Movers was extremely negative. The extra charges, the mishandling of my possessions, and the terrible treatment from their staff have left me regretting choosing them for my move. I would strongly advise anyone considering using this company in the future to be wary. There’s a significant risk of extra charges, mistreatment of your belongings, and poor customer service that could leave you in a stressful and costly situation.

Seamless from start to finish – Gabbie guided my husband and I through the move process from start to finish. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and we couldn't have done it without her.

Gabbie arranged for our delivery to happen on our settlement date and James and… Read more
the team who delivered our belongings went above and beyond, including working out of normal hours, to help us settle in. Can't recommend OSS, Gabbie James enough.
Great service and communication – Professional service by OSS and Gabbie who coordinated our shipping. They listened to everything we needed and helped us throughout the process. They managed to arrange for our stuff to be dropped off on our move day. Unpacking was quick and painless, with a thanks to James who led the unpacking efforts. Great service!
Fast and efficient with a smile – We moved a 4 bed from Australia to the UAE on a compressed timeline. Misha helped us get everything I needed done before my departure. I was glad she was looking after our move as she looked after everything and made it effortless.
Extremely positive experience with OSS – So happy we went with OSS for our move. From start to finish it was a 5 star service. Initially we were planning an international move but we had to change our plans due to unexpected illness, so we ended up moving from the Gold Coast to the Sunshine Coast. Misha our initial point of contact stayed in contact throughout the process and always… Read more
responded quickly to our many questions. To be honest we were stressing out about the day of the move but our removalists Jason and Nathan ensured the day went smoothly and with no problems. The boys were fast, efficient and friendly and nothing was broken. They even dismantled beds and a desk and put them back together again at the other end. Even with really bad traffic and the drive taking an hour longer than expected they were not fazed. We are very grateful for the amazing experience with OSS and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. Without a doubt, the best removalists we have ever used.
Awesome service – Absolutely awesome service . The packing guys were brilliant polite and very helpful. Misha & Gabbie were wonderful. Great correspondence and kept us up to date the whole way through. Couldn't recommend these guys enough if u are moving from Brisbane/ Gold Coast don't use anyone else . Price was cheaper than all other Movers also.
Perfect service and excellent communication – Perfect service and excellent communication from Misha and the whole team at OSS! Packing days are usually stressful but the guys made it a breeze. Very much recommended!
