Whether you are moving to Malta from the USA as a worker or a student, we are sure that you will fall in love with its natural beauty, architecture, and the Mediterranean feel. Malta is also a popular retirement destination for well-to-do residents from Europe, especially the UK.
As an American retiree, you might also be considering Malta. This island nation has many bonuses like a diverse expat community from the EU countries, and English is the second official language.
Despite the purpose of your relocation, SDC International Shipping can move your furniture and other household items to Malta. We also move vehicles, pianos, and artwork. Our professional logistics agents and packers can make the whole process of moving easy. You can compare shipping prices by requesting a quote.
Are you wondering how exactly we are going to service you? Here’s our guide to moving to Malta.
We’ll Manage Sea and Air Shipment
When it comes to international relocation, household goods and vehicles are usually sent either via sea or air. Most clients prefer sea freight because it’s the most affordable shipping method. We will use a container to transport your things efficiently and securely. Depending on the size and volume of your cargo, available options are FCL (Full Container Load) and LCL (Less than Container Load).
After our international household movers survey the items you want to ship, we’ll advise you on the best container solution. The vehicle can also be sent in the container, but the most popular option is RORO.
If you are time-sensitive, you may opt for air freight. It takes around ten days to ship by air, including customs clearance.
Door-to-Door and Port-to-Port Services
We offer port-to-port and door-door services. For example, as your shipping agency, we can collect your shipment from your home, or you can bring it yourself to the port. Similarly, after it arrives in Malta, we can arrange the delivery of your things to your door, or you can go to pick them up from the port.
How Long Does It Take to Ship To Malta?
Delivery time hinges on how far your household goods or vehicle travels. While sea freight may take ten weeks, allow up to 7-10 days for airfreight.
We’ll Take Care of the Paperwork and Customs Clearance
You don’t need to worry about the hassle of paperwork to import your personal belongings to Malta. Instead, you can get SDC International Shipping to deal with customs for you. It means that our shipping agents will prepare all the necessary documents in the required language to ensure smooth processing through customs. On top of that, we also provide our customers with storage services for even more security for goods and quality planning.
We’ll Pack Every Item You Want to Ship to Malta
Our international movers to Malta can pack your belongings following safety procedures. They have the skills to wrap different items. Whether your furniture needs to be disassembled or your antiques wrapped, we can do the job. Our goal is to provide you with the best moving experience by offering high-standard packing services.

We’ll Provide Comprehensive Insurance
When it comes to ocean freight, there’s always a risk that something could go wrong. So it’s important to have the right insurance that protects your interests. SDC International Shipping provides marine insurance solutions to customers to mitigate risks of damage or loss to their contents.
How Much Does It Cost to Ship to Malta?
You will have to spend a significant amount of your money on overseas shipping. Fortunately, our international movers to Malta will help you meet your budget. Whether you are moving to a studio apartment or a large house, the price will be adjusted to your needs.
We will create a custom quote depending on many factors pertaining to your move. For example, sending items in a full 40ft container will cost more than sending things in a shared 20ft container. And there are so many other variables in play. That’s why it’s best to request a free quote for how much it would cost to ship to Malta today.
