Case Overview: Ms. Zhu hired Seapoe Relo to ship her furniture and household goods from Beijing to Toronto by sea

Ms. Zhu grew up in Canada and works as a diplomat. After her posting in Beijing wrapped up, she decided to move back to Toronto for good. She wanted to keep the familiar feel of her Beijing home, so she asked Seapoe to handle everything—ship all her belongings door-to-door in one go.

Shipping Details

Everything Ms. Zhu shipped was everyday stuff she already owned: clothes for all seasons, books, decorative items, kitchenware, and furniture. Total volume: 2 cubic meters, packed into 12 boxes. She chose Seapoe's LCL (less-than-container-load) service, which is a good fit for personal moves across borders. Seapoe covered the whole door-to-door international moving process: packing and pickup at her Beijing home, inland transport to the Shanghai warehouse, short-term storage, booking space and customs clearance, ocean freight, customs clearance in Canada, final delivery by truck, basic assembly of larger furniture, and packaging waste removal.

The Moving Process

① Packing & Pickup

The moving team showed up at Ms. Zhu's Beijing apartment on time. They used reinforced cardboard boxes, bubble wrap, stretch film, and other padding to protect fragile stuff like dishes and decorations. They packed everything on the spot and loaded it onto the truck.

② Warehouse Storage

After packing, the truck took everything to the Seapoe warehouse in Beijing. There, Ms. Zhu's items were grouped together with other customers' shipments headed to Toronto—this way, everyone shares the shipping costs, making it cheaper.

③ Delivery in Toronto

After more than a month at sea, all her stuff arrived safely at her Toronto home. Ms. Zhu opened each box herself, checking—especially the fragile dishes, delicate decorations, and personal diplomatic items.

Everything came through without a scratch: no dents, no breakage, nothing missing. The price was fully transparent from the start, with no hidden fees. Her diplomatic personal goods cleared customs duty-free hassle-free—she didn't have to deal with any of the typical moving scams.
