Completing and submitting my paperwork for my sea freight from Brazil was confusing, unclear and we lost some time to getting that completed. (I was not aware that I as the client should submit all the certified documents to SARS). As soon as this was out of the way the staff and particularly Sunelle Milne was absolutely AMAZING!!!! Her communication, organising and problem solving skills is the best in the business. She was the shining light in this stressful process. The staff delivery my freight was also super friendly, helpful and flexible. I can definitely recommend AGS for your next move. Marcel Rossouw

We used AGS Worldwide Movers to ship over our home contents from South African to New Zealand in 2024, and we have never regretted our decision. Apart from the joy of opening up those boxes and having our "home" again, the service we received was excellent. Sunelle Milne and her team from the Port Elizabeth branch were very friendly and incredibly professional. And then the local team they used here in NZ was just as great. Their prices were very competitive and definitely worth every cent. Well done!
