Parcel Shipping

Simple, Reliable Shipping from the U.S. to Greece

Whether you are sending a few boxes or several, our parcel service is designed to make international shipping straightforward, flexible, and dependable.

At Hermes International Movers, we handle the entire process—from pickup in the United States to delivery anywhere in Greece—so you don’t have to coordinate between multiple companies or worry about the details.

Built for Real-Life Needs

Our parcel shipping service is designed around how people actually ship their belongings—not rigid commercial models.

It is commonly used for:

• Personal belongings and household goods
  Everyday items that are part of your home—clothing, kitchenware, books, and personal effects—carefully prepared for international transport.
  
  
• Items being sent to family or second homes
  Whether you are sending essentials to relatives or furnishing a home abroad, our service allows you to ship comfortably and reliably.
  
  
• Relocation overflow that doesn’t require a full container
  Perfect for situations where you are moving but do not have enough items to justify a full container shipment.
  
  
• Seasonal shipments and recurring needs
  Ideal for sending clothing, personal items, or supplies throughout the year without committing to large-scale shipping.

Whether it’s one box or ten, every shipment is handled with the same level of attention and care.

Door-to-Door, If You Want It

We offer flexible service options so you can choose what works best for your situation:

• Pickup from your home anywhere in the United States
  We can arrange collection directly from your residence, eliminating the need for you to transport boxes yourself.
  
  
• Drop-off at our warehouse locations
  If you prefer, you can bring your shipment to one of our facilities for faster processing and added flexibility.
  
  
• Delivery throughout Greece
  Through our nationwide network, we can arrange delivery to virtually any city or town across Greece.
  
  
• Door delivery available in Athens
  For clients located in Athens, we offer direct-to-door delivery for maximum convenience.

You decide the level of service—we take care of the logistics.

One Price, Fully Managed

When you ship parcels with Hermes, you are not simply paying for transportation—you are paying for a complete, managed shipping process.

Your shipment includes:

• Handling and coordination in the United States
  From intake to preparation, your boxes are properly processed before leaving the country.
  
  
• Ocean freight transportation to Greece
  Your shipment is consolidated and transported efficiently using our established shipping schedules.
  
  
• Customs clearance handled by experienced professionals
  We manage the documentation and clearance process to help avoid delays and complications.
  
  
• Final delivery coordination in Greece (if selected)
  Your shipment is guided through the final stage to reach its destination safely.
  
  

This eliminates the need to deal with multiple providers or unexpected steps along the way.

Our Standard Box — Built for the Job

While clients are free to use their own boxes, most choose to use our standard large carton, specifically selected for international shipping conditions.

Large Carton (Approx. 4.5 Cubic Feet)

• Double-wall reinforced construction provides added durability during long-distance transport and handling.
  
  
• Designed for ocean freight conditions, helping protect contents from pressure, stacking, and movement.
  
  
• Spacious capacity, fitting slightly more than a standard suitcase, allowing for efficient packing.
  
  

These boxes are available:

• Free for pickup at our warehouse locations
  
  
• Or can be sourced independently if you prefer to use your own
  
  

No Strict Weight Limits for Household Goods

Unlike standard parcel carriers, we do not impose rigid weight limits on household goods shipments.

This means:

• You can pack efficiently without artificial restrictions
• You avoid having to split items across multiple boxes unnecessarily
• You have greater flexibility in how you organize your shipment

As long as the contents are appropriate for international transport, we allow you to pack in a way that makes sense.

Weekly Shipments to Greece

We operate weekly consolidated shipments, ensuring your boxes move on a consistent and reliable schedule.

• Your shipment is not left waiting indefinitely
• Transit planning is predictable and organized
• Movement is continuous rather than delayed

This structure allows us to maintain both efficiency and reliability.

Designed to Be Simple

International shipping can often feel complicated—but it doesn’t have to be.

Our parcel service is built to simplify the process by providing:

• One company managing the entire shipment
• Clear and direct communication throughout
• A structured process from start to finish

The goal is simple: make shipping easy to understand and easy to execute.
