All the items were handled and delivered properly at our doorstep in Hyderabad by your professional Team without any damage. Your team facilitated the entire process, until we received the Consignment safe & secure.
We, thank & appreciate, particularly, MS.Sharmila's efforts in ensuring the exact scheduling of the delivery of our material and she followed it up with us, till the completion of the entire process,
Thank you all for the trustworthy service!
Thank You & best regards
Very prompt service with thorough…
Very prompt service with thorough communication.
If you are looking for relocation services I would recommend Universal relocations, eyes closed.
Delightful Export Experience
To begin with, the promptness in replying and a very considerate approach is very much appreciated. Coming to the field level, the professionalism and efficiency at all levels is highly meritorious. The quality of the packaging materials and the packaging done are par excellence and highly commendable.
Booking and pick up went smooth
I have just booked my shipment form India. Right from estimate to scheduling to onsite packing and pick up , the service was excellent. Arun and Santhan were reachable anytime and offered guidance. Hoping that shipment would reach the destination and same service would be provided .
Stay Away!
There are better options! Their main objective is profit maximization at the expense of the customer. Balaji is your typical used car salesman. By ALL MEANS please stay away! You have been warned. Terms like customer retention and customer lifetime value are foreign to them. Time and money well wasted!
Super service
Super service! Sit back and relax while they handle everything. Excellent work by the team, especially Sarvesh for his prompt Sunday support. Great job!
Extremely courteous
Extremely courteous, transparent and prompt responses. Initially it took time to get right connections but once established it was easy and smooth affair. Special mention to Rekha M for timely updates on shipment.
Transparent and Cost Effective
Communication was clear right from the point we approached Universal Relocations team. The packaging process was well done and it took about 3 and half months for our packages to arrive in Mumbai from Bay Area, CA. Everything was in good shape when we recieved it with no damage. We were satisfied with tracking, constant updates and overall transparent experience.
Good and hassle free services
Loved the service. They were available at every step of the way, gave constant updates weekly and there was no serious damage to the items. Will recommend it for sure for relocation services. Thanks Sini for the support!
BEWARE, THEY ARE THIEVES!
BEWARE! THEY STEAL BLATANTLY!
My husband and I hired this company to ship a 20’ container with 154+ boxes from US to India. They first misled us by saying that the container will directly be delivered to our doorstep. Then they encouraged us and misled us into buying 1500$+ worth of insurance. Upon a significant delay in the good actually moving (a few weeks of delay), we finally got the stuff in after 3 months. My husband was called into customs for clearance and after literally spending 10 hours every day for 4 days straight trying to get things cleared from customs and with this company being of no use, we used outside help to have things taken care of and cleared.
Universal Relocations counted our boxes when loading everything in a truck (and not in the container they said they would be delivering directly) and they marked 156 boxes in total on their sheet of paper after loading was complete at customs warehouse. By the point the boxes were loaded, it was evening and their team was not available for door delivery, so the truck went to their trucking company’s warehouse. Next morning the truck arrived, followed by their team that arrived nearly 2 hours after that. Their team unloaded the boxes and we counted it. WE WERE MISSING 7 BOXES! These weren’t small boxes. They were 2’x2’x2’ boxes each. Each of these boxes contained nearly 1000$+ worth of good so about 6,000-7,000$ worth in total was now missing. Their team counted the boxes 4 times and confirmed to their manager on call in front if me that they loaded 156 boxes and unloaded 149. We were livid! Upon opening 2 boxes that were unloaded last since they seemed extremely light, again 2’x2’x2’ boxes each, they were empty! Everything taken out and only some packing material left in and the box taped back shut as if that’s how they were packaged and delivered to us!
They asked us to file a claim with insurance that they misled us into buying by saying that we will get 500$ per box is any of them is damaged or stolen. The insurance company rejected the claim stating that they only reimburse if the entire shipment is damaged or stolen, not for individual items or boxes. The insurance company even asked us how Universal Relocations didn’t already know that’s how it worked! Now we are out of the 1,500$ of insurance money + 6,000-7,000$ worth of goods!
It’s been a whole month since this ordeal in Beginning of December 2025. They assured us that they will fix this for us but they have stopped responding since the last 10 days. We have hired a lawyer and will be taking this up legally. We’ll go to court if need be. Save yourself the HORROR! These guys are blatant thieves and mislead you! Read other similar reviews! DO NOT HIRE THEM! They take no accountability and ghost you when their job is done however shabbily!
Reasonable prices and great service
Very helpful throughout the entire process. Prompt and transparency. No hidden fees. Things reached on time as expected and the entire process was very hassle free. Special thanks to Sham and Sini for their help through the process, would recommend.

Reliable US-India forwarders
I have moved goods through UR from New Jersey and from LA since 2024. A very convenient forwarding system especially for US to India. The customs clearance was hassle free and they delivered at our doorsteps. I have recommended my friends at US to definitely work with UR. Some hiccups were there for the LA pick up but otherwise a seamless door to door service. Great team.
USA to India
I got my boxes delivered from Tampa to Assam. It was pretty smooth and the staff was helpful and friendly including Sini. I got the boxes delivered in good condition. Thanks
Same great experience over decades…
We had a great experience with this company not just once, but twice over a decade. This is more than just praise for the company’s service—although it was consistently friendly, professional, efficient, and responsive throughout the entire process. Every query we had was addressed promptly, and our belongings reached safely and on time. A special mention goes to Thyagarajan, the coordinator, who was extremely supportive and always available to take our calls, despite the time difference. His dedication and reliability truly made the experience smooth and stress-free.
Great Experience
The delivery was done per schedule and there was no damage to any of the goods. All my questions and concerns were answered promptly before and during shipping of the package. Recommended.
Good service if you have over 3 months
It’d have been preferable if I was made aware of the timeline while I was booking the packages. I sent the packages in June and received them in November, definitely not something I had expected. The experience otherwise was very smooth tho, very easy, nothing came damaged.
