We are planning to move from the USA to Warsaw next year. We are looking for a reliable shipping company and good storage in Warsaw until we find a house.
What documents do we need?  Taking 2 cars as well as house contents.
Any good advice would be welcome. Thank you.

Hi Zabka,

I am not sure if I am too late to respond regarding your move to Poland.  Specifically shipping a car to Poland.  I have just completed that process and want to warn that it's quite complex with both meeting the requirements for car inspection and all of the documents required to properly register the vehicles.  I hope that one of you speaks fluent Polish because of the difficulties you will run into.  One of the things that I did which I thought was better was not shipping directly to Poland but to Germany instead.
There is a lot to know if you'd like to know more feel free to message me but use my email, **** as I don't seem to get notifications for messages that are sent here.
