International Relocation Made Simple

Moving to Turkey From the USA

When you’re moving to Turkey from the USA, there is already plenty to organize. Your home may need to be packed, your office may need to be relocated, or you may have specific furniture, equipment, or personal belongings you want to take with you.

Nilson Van and Storage provides international moving services to Turkey for residential, commercial, corporate, and specialty relocations. We can coordinate packing, pickup in the USA, international transportation, storage, and delivery based on what your move requires.

With 85+ years of moving experience, we know that no two international relocations are exactly alike. A family moving to Istanbul may have very different needs from a business transferring equipment or an employee relocating for a temporary assignment.

Why Are Americans Moving to Turkey?

For some Americans, moving to Turkey from the USA starts with a job, business opportunity, family connection, retirement plans, or the decision to build a life somewhere new. Turkey’s mix of cities, culture, infrastructure, and international connections makes it a destination for people with very different reasons for relocating.

The type of move can vary just as much as the reason behind it. You might be taking your household to Istanbul, moving to Ankara for work, relocating a business, or bringing only selected belongings for a temporary stay.

Career and Business Opportunities

Professionals and business owners may relocate to Turkey for employment, company expansion, new ventures, or opportunities to work with customers and partners across Europe and nearby regions.

Family Relocation

Joining family members or moving together as a household can mean bringing furniture, personal belongings, and the everyday items you want in your new home.

A Change of Lifestyle

Some Americans choose Turkey because they want a different pace of life, a new cultural experience, or the opportunity to live in a country connecting Europe and Asia.

Education and Long-Term Plans

Education, family commitments, or longer-term personal plans can also lead to a relocation to Turkey, with the amount of belongings you bring depending on how long you expect to stay.

Starting a Business

Entrepreneurs may move to Turkey to establish a company, open a new location, or manage operations from the country. These relocations can involve office furniture, technology, equipment, and other commercial items.

Staying Connected Internationally

Turkey’s location makes it convenient for people who need connections across Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. For some professionals and businesses, that international access is part of the appeal.

Shipping Options for Moving to Turkey From the USA

Your best shipping option depends on how much you’re moving, what you’re shipping, and how quickly you need it in Turkey. Nilson Van and Storage can help you determine an approach based on your actual shipment rather than using the same option for every move.

Ocean Freight: For larger household shipments, furniture, office contents, and commercial equipment, ocean transportation provides the capacity needed for an international move from the USA to Turkey.

Full Container Shipping: If you’re moving a substantial household or a larger commercial shipment, a full container provides dedicated space for your belongings during the international journey.

Shared Container Shipping: If you have fewer belongings and don’t need an entire container, shared container space may be an option for your move to Turkey from the USA.

Air Freight: For smaller shipments or items that need faster transportation, air freight may be considered. It is generally more suitable for selected belongings than a large household move.

Every successful relocation to Turkey starts with a detailed planning phase. During this stage, shipment size, destination city, transit method, and scheduling considerations are reviewed to establish a realistic moving plan. This assessment helps determine transportation options and sets
expectations for timing and coordination.

Answers to Your Moving Questions

FAQs - Moving To Turkey

  • What should I consider before moving my belongings to Turkey?

    Start by deciding what you actually want to take with you. The volume of your shipment, type of belongings, U.S. pickup location, destination in Turkey, and expected arrival timeframe all influence how your international move should be planned.

  • Is it worth shipping furniture when moving to Turkey?

    That depends on what you’re bringing and where you’re moving. Furniture that is valuable, difficult to replace, or important to your household may make sense to ship, while other items may be easier to purchase after you arrive.

  • Can I ship a partial household to Turkey?

    Yes. An international move doesn’t have to include everything in your home. You can ship selected furniture, personal belongings, household goods, or other items that you want to have with you in Turkey.

  • What if I'm moving to Turkey for a temporary work assignment?

    A temporary relocation may call for a smaller shipment than a permanent move. You can decide which belongings are worth taking with you and use storage for items that you don’t need immediately.

  • Can I take business equipment with me when relocating to Turkey?

    Yes. A move to Turkey from the USA can include more than household belongings. Office furniture, commercial equipment, technology, and other business assets can be part of a corporate or commercial relocation.

  • How should fragile belongings be prepared for an international move?

    Fragile furniture, artwork, electronics, glassware, and other delicate items need appropriate protection before transportation. Professional packing can be arranged based on the type and condition of the items being shipped.

  • What happens if my new place in Turkey isn't ready when I leave the USA?

    Your moving dates don’t always line up. Storage can provide a place for your belongings while you wait for your home, office, or other destination in Turkey to be ready.

  • Can Nilson Van and Storage pick up my belongings anywhere in the USA?

    Pickup can be coordinated from your U.S. home, office, warehouse, or other location. Your pickup location is one of the details used when planning the international move.

  • How are belongings shipped from the USA to Turkey?

    Larger international shipments are commonly transported by ocean, while smaller or time-sensitive shipments may have other options. The appropriate method depends on your shipment and moving requirements.

  • How much does it cost to move to Turkey from the USA?

    The cost of moving to Turkey depends on several factors, including the amount you’re shipping, pickup and delivery locations, packing, transportation, storage, and any specialty moving requirements. A quote can be based on the details of your individual move.

SERIOUSLY the NICEST people ever. Between the three ladies that packed the house and the two gentlemen who loaded the truck. Everyone was outstanding, considerate of our items and kind.

We are being moved by the army so we don’t have much say so on who we get but I’m so happy we were placed with this company!

If you want a moving company that keeps you informed, is friendly, and goes above and beyond for all your moving needs, look no further than Nilson Van and Storage, an agent for Mayflower. Jim completed my estimate in my home and he was incredibly kind and easy to work with. Cindy, my moving coordinator, kept me informed every step of the way and was always willing to answer any questions I had. She continues to follow up even after the move was complete! Melvin was the driver and in charge of the days of the move and delivery days. Melvin and his team were careful and considerate of my personal items and ensured the move was smooth and as least stressful it could be. I will be sure to use Nilson Van and Storage for any moving needs and I recommend them to anyone and everyone!

Nilson Van and Storage did a wonderful job helping us move from their customer service to the move itself. Karen did a wonderful job through out the consultation and ensuring all our questions were answered in regards to packing. Theresa made sure to follow up all throughout the process, making sure everything was taken care of prior to the crew arriving to even after, which was very much needed in the chaos of moving! And of course Stanley and his crew were amazing! Even after being stuck in traffic with delays they did not waste a single minute getting all of our items on the truck for transit. All of our items arrived in great shape, and the guys made sure everything was placed exactly where we wanted it! I am so glad we went with their company, it made our move hastle free!

We were assigned Nilson for our military international move a few months ago. They moved our household goods and our unaccompanied baggage and did an amazing job. They were very friendly, packed everything with care, and were very thorough with their labeling of the boxes. Our whole house was packed and ready to go within two days! I want to call out Ty specifically, he made the process so much easier than it could have been and was great about answering all of my questions!

Half our experience was fine but when they packed our kitchen up we told them to not pack two cupboards and they did. One those cupboards had our dog's prescription food so we had to go through boxes to find.

Wow! This was my Wife’s and I first big move using a moving company, and Angie, Ty, and Kayla exceeded every expectation we had. Ty talked me through every part of the move, showed me the truck, and told me exactly how the unpackers should handle our stuff. Kayla took me through all the paperwork and ensured every single item we had was accounted for and tagged with a corresponding number so we can track it all once we get to our unpacking portion. Angie worked incredibly fast and took extra care of every plate and cup in the kitchen to ensure every item was individually wrapped and secured before packing it. All three of these incredible movers never made assumptions about items and asked along the way if we wanted certain things packed… thanks again Ty, Angie, and Kayla- y’all were amazing!
