ronun59, Since you are moving to UAE, I would like to share my experience and mistakes with you. I moved to Dubai some years ago and i had almost lost my important documents in the process of relocating. So I would suggest you to keep all you necessary documents handy (in your handbag). The best you can do is hire a good company that can do the moving, packing and storing for you. According to my experience, 'theboxme' does a marvelous job!! They (theboxme) offer some really good yet affordable moving, packing and storing services and took utmost care of my belongings..
I hope I could be of some help to you
Take care
