Directory · Household movers

Household movers.

Movers who've shipped from the US to Italy enough times to know the customs piece, the codice fiscale step, and the realities of transatlantic container shipping.

Listings

Italy.

Every international mover has damage and delivery delays in its review history — ocean freight and customs clearance make that unavoidable. What matters isn't a clean record but how an operator responds when something goes wrong. Each listing below has a solid history of professionally handling these sorts of issues.

Naperville · Illinois

Laser International

Federally licensed ocean-freight mover · in business since 1996

Naperville-based outfit that's quietly become an expat-community standby — recommended in Italy-bound Facebook groups and consistently praised on expat forums for moves to Germany, the UK, and Portugal. Smaller scale than the household names, which translates to in-house relocation managers handling clients directly rather than a contact center. Handles both full-container shipments and shared-container groupage for partial moves.

Coral Springs · Florida

International Van Lines

Federally licensed ocean-freight carrier · in business since 2000

Federally licensed with direct ocean carrier contracts, which translates to competitive rates for shared-container shipments. Coordinates international moves to 140+ countries via vetted partner carriers rather than running its own trucks end-to-end — common in the industry, worth knowing going in. One month of free storage on international moves and no upfront deposit required.

Top-tier international accreditation · one of thirty-one US firms qualified

Holds the international moving industry's top quality accreditation — a packing, transit, and claims-handling benchmark only thirty-one US firms meet — and sits in a curated overseas-mover network alongside the world's leading firms.

Livorno · Tuscany

Franzosini

Internationally accredited · in business since 1845

Italy's oldest moving company, in business since 1845, with four offices including Livorno — the closest container port to the Pisa-Lucca corridor most Tuscany-bound Americans target. Holds the same top-tier international accreditation as the US firms above, with multilingual teams and a virtual-survey app — both useful when you're coordinating from across the Atlantic. Worth contacting as your Italy-side partner whatever US mover you've chosen.

Rome · Lazio

T.I.S. srl

Internationally accredited · Lloyd's of London insured · 30+ years

Family-run Roman outfit (the Salatino family) with three decades of moving for the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, NATO, the European Union, and the European Space Agency — institutional work that requires impeccable customs handling. Worth knowing for the Italy-side specifics that US movers typically can't handle: customs formalities, license plate paperwork, and the registration of foreign vehicles.
