When moving to a new place of residence or even just when leaving for a long period, the question inevitably arises of transporting a considerable number of things. When it is necessary to cross the border of another state, the severity of the problem increases significantly. And the border between Russia and Ukraine is no exception.
Instruction manual
1
Think over a list of things you need to send. Estimate how much you need them in a new place. Perhaps it is better to leave something at all. And other things will be easier to sell and buy similar in a new place (even if used). Do not forget that the larger the volume and weight of the cargo, the more you will pay for it.
2
Remember that you may have to pay for customs clearance. It depends on many factors: the citizenship of which country the sender and the receiver have, for what purpose things are transported, what transport is involved in the shipment, etc.
3
Pack the cargo carefully. The reliability of the package depends on how you receive it at the final point. Yes, and at the point of departure it is unlikely that you will take badly stacked things for laying in a container.
4
Determine the tonnage of the container in which your things will fit. They are small, medium and large-tonnage. However, when contacting a specialized transport organization, they will help you with this. Choose the best transport for you, how you will send the container. Your cargo to Ukraine can be delivered in many ways: by road, rail, air travel and even by sea.
5
Not all transport companies will undertake the delivery of the container to Ukraine (if there is no agreement with this country, then the container simply will not return). Therefore, find the company for which the mechanism of such transportation has already been debugged. Here are a few responsible organizations involved in container transportation to Ukraine: ZhelDorExpedition (jde.ru), Olympus Logistic (olimp-logistic.ru), TK Yul LLC (tkyul.umi.ru).

Transportation of the container on a truck, that is, by road, is convenient because your goods will be taken at your place immediately on the spot and, accordingly, they will also be delivered to the address indicated in the documents as the delivery point. If you choose railway transport, you will have to deliver the goods to the station yourself, and the recipient will pick it up at the final station too. But for a fee, the transport organization may offer you to pick up the container from the house and take it to the station. And at the final station, it is also quite possible to deliver the container from the station to the final destination. Handling in this case is provided in the price list. But in the air and sea ports, neither delivery to the address, nor loading and unloading are carried out. Only transportation. So in this case you have to deliver things to the plane and the ship yourself.
