Great job

Joana and the team did a great job keeping me informed every step of the way and answering any concerns I had in a timely and reassuring manner. Very reassuring when one is relocating and shipping their possessions to another country!

It has been easy and cheap to use…

It has been easy and cheap to use Sherpr’s service. The informations on the website are practical and the service efficient with a live chat service for every specific question.
I’d also like to mention that Sherpr helped me through the clearance process of my luggage’s, keeping me posted of every time.
I’d like to specifically mention and thank Marie, who helped throughout the whole process and answered every questions I had.

Overall good except for the initial collection

Despite the collection process was not satisfying by unexpected delay without any notice, the communication with Marie and Sammy has always been active and helpful. After the collection, the delivery was very quick. So, it would have been perfect if the collection process with Fedex went on time.

Great customer service!

I had a very positive experience with Sherpr! Although there were some delays with the delivery due to customs inspections (which were clearly outside of their control), the customer service was truly excellent.
I was consistently kept up to date on the status of my shipment without ever needing to chase for information. In particular, Marie and Fraser from the customer service team were super professional and helpful.
The communication was clear, timely, and reassuring throughout the entire process. Despite the delay, I always felt supported and well-informed.
I would highly recommend Sherpr for their reliability and especially for their outstanding customer service!

What a mess

I used Sherpr to ship personal belongings from the UK to Germany during a relocation.

While the initial booking process was straightforward, significant issues arose during customs clearance. Despite clearly stating that this was a relocation shipment of used personal belongings, the shipment appears to have been declared as “SOLD” to customs by the courier. This created confusion and led to additional scrutiny from German customs.

As a result, I was repeatedly asked to provide extensive documentation (proof of residence, employment, and even proof of purchase for used items), which significantly delayed the shipment (1 month).

I was also charged additional fees by FedEx for customs clearance handling, which were not clearly explained upfront. While I understand that some customs fees are standard, the misclassification of the shipment likely contributed to unnecessary complications and costs.

To be fair, Sherpr support did respond and attempted to assist, but this was massively complicated by the fact they were acting as a middle-man between me, FedEx and German customs. They continually confused things rather than actually helping as far as I can figure out.
Basically I wouldn't suggest using them.

Reply from Sherpr

Hi Tom, thank you for your review and for using Sherpr. We can see you sent an item from the UK to Germany with everything arriving safely on the 6th of March.

We are sorry about any delay in your shipment being delivered as this was held up in customs clearance as you noted. Customs is a governmental agency and is not something that either ourselves or the courier can control.

Sherpr supplied the documentation for customs based on the information you provided. This was clear listed as being for relocation and used personal effects. This was not declared as being sold by Sherpr and you can see this on your customs documentation which we would be happy to resend to you if needed.

We are happy however that our team did try to assist however when it does come to customs clearance, normally the receiver must be the sole contact especially if you are the owner of the goods.

We are sorry for any inconvenience or confusion regarding this. If you need anything else, please let us know. Our customer service team is available via email, phone and live chat.

Awesome Service !

Awesome, excellent and truly deserve 5 BIG Shiny Stars!
I was relocating from UK to Germany. Stored my boxes with Sherpr till I have an address and move date. Sherpr picked up my boxes in UK - on time and I love the app which helped me keep track on the contents in each box. Once I confirm my address and move date, I simply need to notify Sherpr and they took care of everything - reminding me when I miss something. Encountered shipping delays due to customs and Marie was closely following up with FedEx and kept me posted. One thing worth mentioning is the use of chatbot - yes, chatbot answered my queries when I contacted Sherpr after office hours but a support agent will follow-up when office is open. I felt very assured and I think this is a very complementary use of AI without compromising customer service. I definitely recommend Sherpr !

Great customer service

We delivered 9 large moving boxes from Geneva Switzerland to London UK using Sherpr. Marie on the customer service team was truly a star in the whole process - very speedy and helpful answers to emails, chatbox & phone calls (she seemed to be manning all 3 lines)! The delivery was delayed because of Fedex, but when we couldn't get ahold of Fedex, Marie was very diligent and responsive about getting in touch with them. The customs process was also easy and Sherpr made the labels/documents process very straightforward. Would absolutely recommend.

Damaged items, ignored by customer service

Several items in my shipment were broken and I had purchased insurance but customer service stopped answering my emails and never paid me out from the insurance claim. Not a responsive or responsible company. Avoid and find other options.

Hi Jennifer,

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review and I do apologise you were left unsatisfied and with the need to claim.

I can see you did purchase compensation cover, and sent in your claim information. However I can also see we did indeed pay out your compensation claim. You refused to share your bank details with us for transfer via our standard method, so we refunded this directly back to your card used to make the purchase on March 17th.

Our customer service team was in communication with you regarding the above and ensured we made the refund as requested.

All the best,
Sherpr

From US to Spain in 2 weeks

TLDR; cost effective, informative, and helpful even when things weren’t done properly on my end. Use Sherpr they’re better than you’ll find anywhere else

From the moment I made the inquiry until delivery, the Sherpr team was absolutely helpful, honest, and informative. To start with, Duncan who was the first person who initiated the call with me walked me through the process, protocol, what to expect and why things are done a certain way for the sake of my final destination (Spain). Of course there were things I needed to seek out on my own, but for the most part Duncan took more time with me to explain how and why after having 2 different bad experiences with other shipping companies, who were just trying to close a deal—who were twice as expensive btw. Then came the procedure and protocol. This is a bit involved. But it has to be. Just give yourself some grace and do exactly as they ask you and you will have no problems. Once the pick up and shipping was handled, Marie was my customer service rep who gave me periodic updates. Even when there was a delay (my fault, not theirs), they were informative and advocated for me with customs to ensure I could get my family’s belongings. They arrived today, everything together and intact, minus a poorly packed picture frame that I lumped in with wrong stuff.

I would absolutely use them again, no doubt.

Complex move to Spain carried out to perfection

We worked with Suddath moving out of the US and Sherpr. We had a complex timing situation as we were simultaneously selling a home, moving household goods to Spain, and flying to Europe with a four day window to execute. Ken at Suddath, Sammy, and Marie at Sherpr pulled it off to perfection. The shipment arrived on time, in perfect condition, and on budget. FedEx delivered to my door. You can't ask or expect any more than that. Great communication and customer service from the Sherpr team and follow up by Suddath. We highly recommend this group for overseas shipping.

Amazing service from start to finish!!! 5 STARS

Sammy and Marie made shipping my items from New York back to the UK a dream - they put the customer first at all times, the chat service is excellent, and they respond immediately, backing this up with personal call backs. They give you the personal touch that other companies simply do not offer.

Sherpr sets the bench mark for any of the other service providers in this industry. Honestly, I cannot recommend Sherpr highly enough, especially Sammy and Marie -

Thank you so much for all of your help, you made the entire process seamless.

Sherpr: Exceptional Service, Professional, Fast Turnaround Delivery

I have moved internationally with four different carriers. From the first call from Duncan to the actual delivery of my goods overseas within a week, it was the most professional service I have experienced. They listen and made changes based on my changing needs to ensure I was satisfied. The Quote was within my expectation for container shipping ... but the Quote was for air freight! Thrilled! Marie handling Customs also quickly assisted me. It was Exceptional Serice and worth a 6 out of 5 rating!!!

Cheap to ship from NL to the UK and great customer service

The customer service team at Sherpr were great, both before I placed an order with them when they helped me get my shipment arranged properly, and afterwards when there was an issue with customs that they contested for me. The only issue I encountered was with Fedex incorrectly charging me import tax on items I was shipping from NL to the UK, despite me having a proper ToR1 form filled out, but Sherpr contested the charge on my behalf and I got my things shipped in the end without too much delay and without having to pay the tax. Fedex customer service was actually useless when I called them, so I recommend always going to Sherpr first. They also quoted me a much lower cost than a lot of other couriers. Would recommend! Only criticism is that on their website, when you have to upload your documents, it's not made clear whether I should upload my proof of address for the country I'm shipping from or to, I had to use chatgbt to help me fill it in, but only a small detail.
