BEWARE

BEWARE! We shipped household furniture back to Indonesia. We paid A$12k for door-to-door service. Once in Indonesia OSS passes off the logistics to its "partner" company AGS Indonesia who sent us ANOTHER invoice for A$3k which they claimed was for local port charges, storage and truck delivery in order to get our furniture delivered. When we complained to OSS they pointed to their small print about "extra charges" being likely at the destination. Essentially, OSS passes off responsibility once they have got your money and does not care what happens at the destination. This business practice means OSS does not get involved in the corruption, extortion and 25% "extra costs" customers experience at the destination. We have moved across continents and countries for work multiple times and have used other global shipping companies and never encountered this practice before, we pay the quote and the shipping is delivered door-to-door. There should not be 25% extra charges if the "worldwide mover" handles everything smoothly. Our advice is AVOID this company and choose another global shipping operator.

Hi JLee Thank you for reaching out with your concerns. We appreciate the opportunity to clarify the charges and address the points raised in your review.
All international shipments are subject to Customs clearance, and clearance times will vary. Indonesia has a complex customs process, which will at times lead to unforeseen delays and associated charges such as detention (container rental charges) and demurrage (wharf storage) fees. which can be expensive.

If a container is held by Customs at the port beyond the free time period, the port will apply storage charges until the container is removed from the port. The port operator would argue that ports cannot function if congested with containers, but it is a bitter bill to swallow when the hold is applied by Customs preventing our partners from collecting it. The same could and does happen in Australia, the USA, or many other destinations but more developed countries tend to have more transparent procedures.

Likewise, the shipping lines offer a period of free time on the use of a container before it must be returned to them for use by other customers. Once this free time is exhausted daily rental charges apply. The quantum of these costs will be determined by the time taken by Customs authorities to clear the consignment, unfortunately for obvious reasons this timeframe is outside of our control.

Our quotation provides for known charges at the destination, but it would not be appropriate or fair to ask clients to pay for potential costs in advance when these costs may not occur. In your case, an additional fee was incurred due to your delivery location not being serviceable by a container truck. A shuttle fee, like detention and demurrage charges are general exclusions from all moving contracts.

There should be no surprises for you in relation to these charges as our quotation not only listed these items as exclusions but made highlighted notes on the first page of the proposal under the heading "Additional Charges" stating:

Likely to apply: Shuttle charges in case of difficult road access to the residence address that requires the goods to be reloaded into a smaller shuttle truck. This will apply for around 80% of the residences: 200 USD/20ft (incl. VAT)

Likely to apply: Shipping Line Demurrage & Detention (combined) and related administration charges, to be billed back as per actual receipt. Port storage charges and related administration charges (est. USD 175-325/20ft)

We understand that unexpected costs can be frustrating, and we strive to be transparent about potential additional charges. The charges were applied were based on actual costs incurred, and receipts from the shipping line and wharf authority have been provided to you as verification.

While we respect your perspective, the characterisation of our business practices are not an accurate reflection of the service and support provided.

We remain available to assist and provide any additional documentation you may require.

Regards

It took 6 months for belongings to arrive

We moved from Australia's Sunshine Coast to Christchurch, New Zealand and used OSS for our move.

Here is our experience:

The Good: Both the teams that packed up our home in Australia and unpacked in New Zealand were amazing. Super friendly and efficient, and none of our household goods were damaged during the moving process (except for mould; more on that below). They were a pleasure to work with.

The Bad: It took 6 months for our belongings to arrive in New Zealand. Our goods were only shipped after we implied to our move manager that we'd take further action, as we felt their business sales practices were misleading.

During an initial phone call with OSS World Wide Movers in October 2024, the sales rep told me it would take "up to" 10 to 12 weeks (about three months) for our goods to arrive in NZ, due to use of a shared groupage container. (Although they also indicated it might be much quicker.) Meanwhile OSS's website says that it can take 8 to 16 weeks. We were happy with that as a timeline.

The movers packed up our belongings on December 3, 2024. Given the timelines we had been told by OSS, we expected to receive our belongings by late February 2025/early March 2025 at the latest.

In the end, our belongings arrived on May 26, 2025. That means it took 25 weeks or 6 months for our goods to be shipped from Brisbane, Australia to Christchurch, NZ (which, let's face it, isn't a massive distance).

Our goods spent those six months in warehouse where the conditions were (to quote an OSS staff member): "warm and hot." In other words: Great conditions for mould and mildew. But, of course, one of the exclusions on the insurance policy we bought through OSS was mould.

Communications also weren't great. We received next-to-no updates from our move manager, unless I reached out to them directly.

In the end, we had to pay thousands to stay in an Airbnb because OSS failed to deliver our belongings within the advertised timeline.

I recommend OSS

I recommend OSS, I was worried before organising an overseas move... it seemed overwhelming. I was moving my dearest stuff, inclusive of hifi things, paying a fair bit of money for it, etc. But it all went very well, all team members very super professional and helpful and flexible with delivery as well. I had to do a claim on one of my lamp as well, but the whole insurance claim process also went super smoothly, efficiently and in a friendly manner.

Superteam-Melissa/Scott/Josh/Cody! 🥇

Melissa & her team (Scott/Cody/Josh) did a phenomenal job with the packaging of all our household items. Melissa also provided a very detailed inventory list of all items with reference to whom completed each item. Such excellent team work! Made my move less stressful! 👍👏🏆🥇

Great moving crew in Melbourne

We were lucky enough to have Jesse and Candace help us on our uplift day and they were honestly unbelievable.
Candace came in early to help with the packing, and she could see we were overwhelmed so she just took control and helped us get organised; we couldn't have done it without her. She provided calmess in an otherwise stressful situation.
When Jesse and his colleague came, they came through and wrapped and packed everything that was left with professionalism and care for our items and provided great advice with an item that might not pass customs clearance.
Thank you for making our uplift so easy!

If you want a stress free move, I would 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 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.

Just an update. I've had to claim insurance and have been told that QBE will be handling my claim however will not give me any contact details for who I can talk to at QBE. OSS said in the email they are no longer handling my claim but will not provide any contact details for anyone at QBE.

This is a reply to OSS response to my review today 12 June 2025.

Your response is inaccurate and misleading to the consumer. You were contracted to repack all of my boxes, which you did not. Opening boxes I had packed and merely putting a small amount of butcher paper on top is not repacking. As you are well aware, more than a lantern was damaged. There were multiple items of which I sent you photos of. On arrival into Akld my partner received the goods and no offer to unpack or remove any of the packaging was given. Clearly items unable to be unpacked in a container was not required but the larger items of furniture and other outdoor items wrapped, were not unwrapped or packaging removed. Do not let this company fool you with their response and argument. They have failed outrageously to deliver what was promised. The behaviours of their staff towards me were terrible, because I dared you complain and hold them accountable. Do not use this company unless you want a stressful, terrible and expensive experience.

Dear Nicole,

Thank you for your feedback but we are surprised by the claims being made.
Your consignment was collected from National Storage Biggera Water and internationally packed and prepared for export. The consignment was made up of 55 items or 10 cubic metres.

As your consignment was collected from a storage unit the cartons that were packed by you were checked and repacked to ensure safe voyage. This is acknowledged by you and evidenced in photos supplied showing OSS packing paper and tape that was applied. The quality of the packing and handling is evidenced by the safe arrival of the cartons albeit for a small dent in what we believe to be a light shade/lantern. With the effects packed in cartons arriving as they departed, the packing appears to have been sufficient. We would encourage you to post the images we have sent you showing your effects as they were packed prior to export.

We acknowledge the damage sustained to your glass cabinet which is regrettable. The damage appears consistent with “shock” meaning that the item or container suffered a significant jolt at some point, which can occur as containers are handled mechanically through ports. It is difficult to protect against this type of damage. It is covered by insurance, and we advised you to submit a claim.

The delivery location was too another storage unit (container) in Henderson Auckland. The delivery instructions to our partners were for unpack and set up of furniture if required. These are standard instructions, and the delivery papers signed by your representative suggest that all delivery requirements were fulfilled. It would be unusual to unpack furniture items into an intermediary place of storage (a storage unit), as you would be removing protection from the effects whilst they are in storage and later in transit. To avoid creating workplace hazards, our proposal allows for the unpacking of cartons to elevated flat surfaces. Elevated flat surfaces were not present in the storage container.

Unfortunately, the statements you are making are not accurate.

MPI (Biosecurity) inspections and charges are not a surprise. They are fully disclosed with your quotation clearly noting “MPI/Quarantine may elect to inspect your consignment on arrival, if this occurs an additional charge will be payable at that time.” This is highlighted and appears on the first page of the proposal. MPI charges are calculated based on multiple components which include the time incurred of a MPI Officer plus the time, cost and resources incurred by the transitional facility to facilitate the inspection. In this instance, New Zealand Movers must provide accredited staff, and facilities for the inspection to occur. The charges incurred are completely in line with industry.

Since the delivery of your consignment, you have communicated with us on numerous occasions, multiple times a day. We have tried to answer those queries promptly, politely, and help.

We take the feedback onboard and will assist you with your insurance claim as best we can.

Regards

Very professional team

Very professional team. we moved from Australia to India and were initially nervous on how things would go with OSS. However, as promised by their team, they kept us in the loop from day 1 and the whole process was handled smoothly. Highly recommend the OSS team - they are specialists in international relocation.

Excellent service - would recommend!

Excellent service - would recommend!
OSS was our Australian partner from our recent relocation from the UK to Sydney. I have nothing but good things to say about the team that worked with us. Anu was very good about keeping us up to date with our container when it arrived in Australia, and was quick to respond to emails and queries. The team on the day of delivery, Sunny, Daryl and Carlos were fantastic on the day, got the container unloaded in a morning, and helped with getting the boxes unpacked and took away the packaging material.

OSS are 5 star to deal with …

OSS are 5 star to deal with and would highly recommend to anyone that is looking for a high quality moving company for the most competitive costing.
We recently moved our family of 5 from Auckland to Brisbane. OSS were the most competitive price as well as being highly efficient and amazing communication.
The packers they sent to our Auckland home were of the highest quality. Our container of household goods was moved to Brisbane in record time. The agent in Brisbane was professional and efficient and had our container off the port and through customs/bio security very quickly.
The container arrived to our house in Brisbane with a team of very professional movers and it was unpacked and in our home in the most considerate and respectful way.
Thank you OSS for making a stressful move into something quite easy, we very much appreciate you all.
