I used AGS Movers Vietnam to relocate my household goods from Europe to Vietnam. Unfortunately, my experience was very disappointing and, among the six international moves I have completed over the past 20 years, it was the most problematic.
Several items arrived damaged, including furniture with chips and scratches, a designer lamp packed together with clothing, and a television that arrived broken in multiple places. In my view, the extent and nature of the damage suggest that the packing did not meet the standard I would expect for an international move. For example, I did not observe any bubble wrap being used, and the television appeared to be protected by only a single layer of wrapping despite its fragility. AGS maintained that the packing was appropriate and did not accept responsibility for the damage, despite concerns raised by the AGS team during the unpacking process.
I also encountered difficulties with import documentation in Vietnam, which resulted in significant additional storage and related costs amounting to approximately 30% of the original shipping cost. One of the reasons I selected AGS was its stated experience with relocations to Vietnam, making this outcome particularly disappointing. A mutually satisfactory resolution could not be reached regarding either the documentation issues or the damaged goods.
What I found most frustrating was the contrast between the supportive and solution-oriented discussions that took place while the shipment was in transit and the response I received once questions of compensation and cost-sharing arose. From my perspective, there was limited willingness to acknowledge or share responsibility for the additional costs incurred.
Based on my experience, I would encourage prospective customers to discuss packing standards, liability, documentation requirements and claims procedures in detail before committing to a shipment.
Overall, this was the most difficult and disappointing international relocation experience I have had.

We moved from Dubai to Georgie in Summer 2020. If you use AGS service I advise you to stay with them when they go to pack your boxes to avoid any disappearance of your personal belongings. Our own bed experience. More than ever this company is absent when you need to make complaints.
Pray not to have any disappointments during your move because you will be alone in front of your problems. Regarding their insurance, know that they will do everything not to reimburse you. Our car arrived scratched and the battery was dead, because they didn't do the necessary to move correctly the car. And they call themselves the professionals?? It's a big question!!! Very bad experience!!!!

Not a reliable option while relocating from South Africa
Have experienced several overseas moves so far. Last one, with AGS Movers, Johannesburg branch.
Overall bad experience, lack of control from management side, inexperienced packing crew, extremely late, not managing the property properly, not repairing or compensating for the damages.
Shipping the containers extremely late after the packing, both shipments left SA after almost a month from packing date.
I don't know if other companies are providing a better service level in SA but I suggest avoiding AGS Johannesburg branch for your move. Barely they can claim 'meeting the norm' for international relocation!!!
