What Expat Relocation Solutions does

Expat Relocation Solutions is an independent international and domestic household goods mover operating under parent ARCA International Inc. (legal entity ARCA INTERNATIONAL INC.), with no affiliation to any single van line. The company provides full-service packing, transportation, and storage for household goods relocations across more than 45 countries annually, leveraging an extensive network of vetted domestic van line partners and the FIDI Global Alliance international agent network spanning over 100 countries. Core service lines include International Moving Services, Domestic Moving Services, the Expedited Transport and Arrival (ETA) small-shipment program, Professional Packing Services, Storage Services (including climate-controlled options for wine and fine art and vaulted storage for high-value items), Vehicle Shipping, and specialized offerings for wine collections and pet relocation, executed through air, ocean, road, and rail transport modes. Technology is operational rather than productized: the platform centers on a Pre-Move Survey System, export-grade packing methods tailored to humidity and long-haul transit, and OTI/NVOCC-licensed ocean freight forwarding; limited predictive analytics and process automation are applied to route planning and capacity management.

The company's revenue model is transaction-based, with fees determined by shipment weight, volume, and destination, augmented by professional services revenue from packing, storage, and specialty handling. Customer segmentation is hybrid: corporate mobility programs (HR and mobility teams managing domestic and international employee relocations, including government clients served through sister company ARCA Government Services) and individual consumers arranging personal or lump-sum-allowance moves. Go-to-market is sales-led and enterprise-field-driven, supported by professional move coordinators, a complimentary Moving Cost Estimate funnel, content marketing via a Knowledge Hub and newsletter, and social media presence. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Competitive positioning rests on independent-mover flexibility, FIDI-FAIM certification audited by Ernst & Young, an OTI/NVOCC license, EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework certification at the parent, and a WHR Global 2025 Partner in Quality Award placing it in the top one percentile of suppliers.
