Pattaya sits closest to the main port of any resort city in Thailand, about forty five minutes up the coast. Most arrivals go into a beachfront or hillside condominium rather than a house.
Shipments land at Laem Chabang and clear Thai customs there. The road leg is roughly 40 kilometres, about forty five minutes. Because the port is so close, a Pattaya container can clear customs and deliver on the same day, which is unusual anywhere else in the country.
One vetted FIDI FAIM certified moving company. No charge, no obligation.
Pattaya has the largest concentration of Western retirees in Thailand, and a substantial group of people working in the eastern industrial belt who choose to live on the coast. Retirees usually ship a household into a bought condominium. Workers ship part loads into rented ones.
The high season from November to February fills the condominiums and the service lifts get booked out, so allow more notice for a delivery slot. The port being forty minutes away means the road leg itself is never the delay.
Condominium buildings run a booked service lift, usually with a deposit and an insurance certificate. Pratumnak and the hills behind Jomtien have steep approach roads that a fully loaded lorry cannot always take, so the load transfers to a smaller vehicle.
Areas the movers cover here: Central Pattaya, Jomtien, Pratumnak, Naklua and Bang Saray. Packing materials, a packing crew and storage in either country are separate line items rather than part of the base price.
Your destination is พัทยา, romanised as Phatthaya. Pattaya is the standard English spelling. Phatthaya is the formal transliteration.
Central Pattaya, Jomtien, Pratumnak, Naklua and Bang Saray. Addresses outside those are still collected: the firm delivers across the province and smaller places are served off the nearest run.
Si Racha, Rayong, Samut Prakan, Bangkok. Still choosing between two of these? Say so and ask for the difference in the quote.
Goods arrive at Laem Chabang and travel on by road, roughly 40 kilometres, about forty five minutes. Sea transit runs about six to twelve weeks door to door before that road leg starts.

We are not a removal company. Tell us what you are sending and where it is going, and one vetted moving company from the AGM Group network, agm.group, takes it from there. Their movers and packers survey the house, wrap the goods and load the container, and the same firm handles the relocation paperwork and the clearance in Thailand. That company holds FIDI FAIM certification. One firm, one quote, one point of contact, from the UK collection through to the shipping and the delivery.
