A New Country, a New Life: An End-to-End Moving Experience with Troy Depo
Last updated: 7 March 2026 • 3 min readAhmet was a dynamic, innovative professional working in a management position at an international company. When he landed a career opportunity in Germany, he and his family decided to settle abroad. This exciting news opened the door to a new life and a new work environment.
All the preparations were made. However, they didn't want to take their belongings with them until they had found a permanent home in Germany. They decided to bring their belongings over from Türkiye once they had found a home they were truly happy with. Rather than paying rent on a house in the meantime, they loved the idea of putting their belongings in a trusted storage facility, so they started looking for one.
At the outset, questions such as which belongings to take with them and which to keep in Türkiye needed quick answers. There were furnishings for an entire home, custom furniture and personal belongings. Along the way, several needs emerged: moving the belongings to storage, the storage itself and, later on, moving the stored belongings to Germany.
During their research, they came across Troy Depo. Getting all the services turnkey from Troy Depo and handling everything through a single point of contact made a lot of sense to them. They trusted Troy Depo with the move to storage, the storage itself and the international move.
A 1-Year Storage Solution
On the recommendation of a friend who had previously rented short-term storage, Ahmet contacted Troy Depo. He was offered 1-year household storage along with a home-to-storage moving service. This way, he could safely store the belongings he wouldn't take to his home in Germany at first but would need later. Instead of paying rent on a house during that time, he would pay a storage fee, a far more economical solution.
To determine the size of the storage space, the expert team examined the belongings and worked out the volume, packing requirements and moving plan. Then a quote tailored to his needs was prepared, and once he accepted it, the process with Troy Depo began.

Home-to-Storage Moving and the Journey to Germany
The professional moving team was at the door on the scheduled date. Fragile and delicate items were carefully wrapped in bubble wrap and packing paper; paintings and frames were placed in separate boxes.
Within a single day, most of the belongings were neatly loaded onto the truck and transferred to the designated storage space. Meanwhile, Ahmet signed the storage contract and carried on with his preparations to move abroad. His belongings were now safely in storage, packed and ready to be called for whenever he wanted.
From Türkiye to Germany: Hitting the Road!
Exactly one year later, having rented a home in Germany and settled in, Ahmet decided to bring the belongings he had left in storage to his new home there.
He got in touch with Troy Depo again and used its international moving service. Road transport was chosen, as it was both cost-effective and practical for large items. The professional team loaded the boxes waiting in storage onto the vehicle, and once the customs and shipping documents were ready, the shipment set off from Türkiye for Germany.
A Comfortable and Secure Moving Experience
For a full year, Ahmet enjoyed the peace of mind of knowing his belongings in Türkiye were kept in a well-maintained, climate-controlled and secure facility. While he was adjusting to his new country, he never had to worry about the belongings he had left behind, and a year later the move went smoothly. His furniture was also assembled and set up in his home in Germany.
For Ahmet, who completed both the long-term storage and international moving stages with Troy Depo, the whole experience turned into an enjoyable, comfortable process. In the end, he decorated his new home just the way he wanted and, confident that his treasured belongings from Türkiye had been in safe hands, brought them into his brand-new life in Germany.
