Move Cross Border to the Pacific Coast

Moving to the Pacific Coast

The best international movers have experienced staff dedicated to both the home and destination locations. Bekins has exactly those specialists
The Pacific Coast is Bekins home turf. Moving and storage roots that go back to 1903, when Daniel Bekins established the Seattle moving and storage facilities, as well as Bekins first Canadian office in Vancouver, BC. The growth of demand quickly drove Bekins to become the first to introduce covered moving vans and motor trucks to the west coast. There have been many changes leading to the Bekins Worldwide Moving & Storage of today, however a constant has always been the attention to the unique needs of each and every Pacific Coast move.

Adapting To Climate Change

   The potential for increased wildfire activity and its dangerously smoke polluted air are accepted realities the west coast of North America, especially California south, has faced.
   2021 is also expected to be a second year of increasing draught in California. Their rainy season that came with dry Santa Anna winds used to start in October however November or December are becoming more the norm for those expected fall rains.    Recognizing these changes those along the Pacific are adjusting. An increased focus on forest management that includes clearing debris issues has seen help from local power companies. With over a thousand fires attributed to power line repair and management legal pressures are bringing electric system repairs and redesign. Remote and newly built woodlands bordering communities are getting their own micro grids. Technology is being used to watch for and deal with fires more quickly. It all adds up to controlling the impact, character and impact of fire(s).
   These changes make moving safer and more cost effective.

Many Time Zones, Many Climates

The weather changes from sea level, to nearby and more remote mountain locations... from the frozen north of Alaska to the Santa Anna winds crossing desert regions ... on to the beaches of Mexico and Hawaii.

Many Rules, Government Organization and Languages

   Cross border customs between Canada, Alaska, Hawaii and Washington share cost implications with rules for shipment by truck, train or ship.
   Coordinated move management uses established relations for move flow. Reducing extra demurrage costs and delays depends on experience... using Spanish to complete paper work, local container handling procedure protocols, are examples of avoiding costly pitfalls.
   You only pay for what you need when you use experience.
