The Teacher & Family Shipping Programme

My Global Delivery has created a dedicated Teacher & Family Shipping Programme designed specifically for international educators.

The idea is simple: when teachers need help moving personal belongings internationally, schools can introduce them to a trusted logistics partner who understands the process and can guide them step-by-step.

No complicated arrangements. No additional work for HR teams. Just a reliable resource teachers can contact.

Built by relocation experts

The programme was developed by Daniel Beagle, whose team brings over 25 years of international moving and relocation experience.

It was created to give teachers and their families clear guidance, practical support and a more manageable relocation experience.

Teachers often need support when they want to:

  • Moving personal belongings when starting a new teaching contract abroad

  • Shipping smaller household items between assignments or countries

  • Sending important belongings to family members overseas

  • Understanding customs requirements and required documents

  • Avoiding expensive airline excess baggage fees

  • Knowing what items are practical and cost-effective to ship internationally

Our team helps teachers understand the process before anything is shipped, reducing the risk of delays or unexpected costs.

Supporting schools without vreating more work

Schools want to support teachers relocating internationally, but HR teams need support with reliable logistics.

The Teacher & Family Shipping Programme gives schools a trusted contact who can recommend suitable shipping options, so school teams can focus on supporting their teachers.

  • Teachers receive professional guidance

  • HR teams avoid complex logistics questions

  • Teachers enjoy a smoother relocation experience

Frequently Asked Questions

What documentation is required when shipping personal belongings internationally?

Documentation requirements vary depending on your origin and destination countries. For shipments to or from the Philippines, you will typically need a packing inventory, proof of identity, and customs declaration forms. Our team guides you through the exact documents required for your specific route and shipment type before anything is sent, so there are no surprises at customs.

Will customs duties apply to my personal effects?

This depends on several factors including the destination country, the nature of the items, and your residency status. Personal effects being imported for personal use are often exempt or qualify for reduced duty rates under certain conditions. Our team will advise you on the applicable rules for your specific situation before you ship, so you have a clear picture of any potential costs.

How should items be packed for international transport?

International shipments require careful packing to protect items across long distances and handling at customs. We provide guidance on packing standards before your items are collected, and our team can assist with professional packing as part of the service. Items should generally be packed in sturdy boxes with appropriate protective materials. Fragile, high-value, and restricted items require specific handling, we advise on all of this as part of the process.

How does my school introduce me to My Global Delivery?

The process is straightforward. Your school's HR team simply introduces you to My Global Delivery and provides us with details of what you would like shipped. From there, we contact you directly, recommend the most suitable shipping solution for your needs, and guide you through every step of the process. There is no complicated arrangement required from the school or from you.

What shipping options are available for teachers?

We offer a range of shipping options suited to different volumes and timelines. Excess baggage services are ideal for smaller personal shipments and avoid high airline surcharges. Less Than Container Load (LCL) or groupage containers work well for smaller household shipments. Airfreight is available for shipments needing faster delivery. For larger relocations requiring full container space, Full Container Load (FCL) services are available. We recommend the most suitable option based on what you need to ship and your timeline.

Can I use the programme when moving between assignments, not just when starting a new contract?

Yes. The programme is designed to support teachers at multiple points in their international career, whether you are moving personal belongings when starting a contract abroad, moving smaller household shipments between assignments, or shipping belongings to family members overseas. We are here whenever you need reliable international shipping support.

How do I get a quote and what information do I need to provide?
