Our Process
The Dimond Movers Moving Process
Step 1
Video / In-Person Survey
Our Sydney destination partner surveys your NSW property, agrees the inventory and confirms the London delivery address.
Step 2
Fixed Written Quote
Full door-to-door price covering Sydney collection through to London delivery — sea and air options priced side by side.
Step 3
Export Packing & Collection
Export packing at your Sydney address, load into a sole-use or shared container at Port Botany, sealed with a numbered customs seal.
Step 4
UK Clearance & London Delivery
Arrival at Felixstowe or Southampton, ToR1 relief filed on your behalf, and final delivery into any London postcode.
Sydney to London — the route in reverse
Sydney-to-London is our longest inbound corridor. Sea container is the default for a full home — 8-12 weeks door-to-door via Port Botany to Felixstowe or Southampton, sole-use 20ft or 40ft depending on volume. Airfreight is 10-14 days SYD to LHR and priced side-by-side for executive relocations.
Our vetted Sydney destination partner runs the origin service — export packing at your NSW address, container loading at Port Botany, sealed with a numbered ABF customs seal. From the UK border onwards, Dimond Movers takes over end-to-end.
UK customs and Transfer of Residence (ToR1)
Returning UK residents and new UK arrivals can claim UK ToR1 relief — used personal effects owned and used abroad for at least 6 months can be imported into the UK VAT- and duty-free, provided the move happens within 12 months of establishing UK residency.
We prepare the ToR1 application, the C3 / C5 customs declaration and the valued inventory in English so nothing stalls at Felixstowe, Southampton or LHR cargo. Airfreight consignments clear the same day; sea containers typically clear within 3-7 working days of port arrival.
London delivery — access planned before the container leaves Sydney
Central London deliveries typically need parking suspensions (Camden, Westminster, Kensington & Chelsea, Islington, Wandsworth), a lift booking for mansion-block or new-build addresses, and a delivery window aligned to concierge / building manager rules.
We arrange the London parking permit and lift booking before the container leaves Port Botany so the unload runs to the same tight schedule as our domestic UK moves. Delivery into any London postcode plus the wider Home Counties.
Fixed pricing on the Sydney → London route
Indicative pricing mirrors the outbound direction: sole-use 20ft container £5,500-£8,500, sole-use 40ft container £8,500-£12,000+. Shared groupage available from around £2,800 for Sydney collections where dates are flexible by 2-4 weeks.
Every quote is fixed in writing after a video survey. No day-of surprises, no separate UK delivery invoice, no destination-agent surcharges.
