  • The door to door service was exemplary. I would strongly recommend Kef to anyone considering an overseas shipment

    Baruch Singer Jun 2014
  • From the moment I spoke to your first representative to the last few minutes of the delivery, I felt that everyone from Kef International always had my best interests in mind. The packers were kind and always had patience and were very courteous. The delivery men were amazing. They were strong, careful and willing to put every box in the right place. I would certainly use Kef and recommend them to all of my friends with a shipment.

  • Kef always answered questions in a  very timely manner and did their best to expedite our shipment which was 4 weeks to the day of our arrival in Israel.

  • Our moving experience was extremely smooth thanks to the professionalism of everyone. There were absolutely no glitches along the way. Everything happened on schedule and as planned (except for arrival of ship to Ashdod 3 days late -- but that was to be expected), and communication with Kef was excellent. A huge to Jerusalem could have been fraught with difficulty, but it wasn't thanks to the first-rate service by Kef from pick up to dealing with customs to delivery at our new home. Kef has also been very helpful in helping us move our landlady's furniture out and in to storage. Thank you!

  • I wanted to tell you how wonderfully seamlessly this whole procedure was...from my first contact with Daniel until the delivery team...everything worked like clockwork and so quickly I was amazed!! It looks like nothing was broken, and I believe all arrived, so I just want to thank you for the wonderful service you provide and how easily it all went...ישר כוח והקב"ה יבורך אתכם מכל טוב תחת השמים! Toda rabba for everything. All your staff was always kind and courteous!!

  • I am very satisfied with all aspects of the shipping experience with Kef. The packers and especially the delivery team were exceptional in their professionalism. As far as the communication team goes, my emails and calls were answered promptly and correctly. I am making Aliyah only once, but if I were to do it again, Kef would be shipping company! Thank you Adam, Joan, and Daniel!

  • We'd recommend using Kef. Our lift arrived on time and in good shape. Crews on either end were helpful and professional.

    Ovi and Michal Jacob New Milford, NJ to Modiin, Aug 2015
  • Kef made our move efficient and easy. We got so much information from them about absolutely everything we needed to know- documentation, scheduling, customs, even what to pack and what to leave. The packing and delivery teams worked quickly and neatly, and were so patient with us and careful with our stuff. Thank you, Kef, for bringing us home!
