hi deago-ga!

I enjoyed finding your answer since international travel is a mostly
unfulfilled passion of mine.  :-)

This first 2 links might be particularly useful, so I thought I'd
place it at the top to bring it to your attention. Their main pages
have links to a virtual library of information about the industry from
all perspectives.


Employee Relocation Council
http://www.erc.org/
..."This site is brought to you by the Employee Relocation Council to
help you expand your knowledge of employee relocation and workforce
transitions 24 hours, seven days a week and manage your career..."

Employee Relocation Service Directory (mentioned above)
http://www.erc.org/directory/index.shtml
..."The Global Workforce Service Directory is the industry's on-line
source of information on real estate brokers, real estate appraisers,
and specialized relocation service companies who are prepared to give
particular attention to effectively serving corporations and their
transferred employees....This spring, ERC will introduce the new
International Services Section of the Directory, which will be
searchable by country! Relocation Service Providers will now be able
to identify the countries in which their services are available,
making it easier for prospective clients to find exactly the right
service partners..."


And this one:

Paragon Decision Resources
http://www.pdr.com/

Here is their International Moving Brochure:

..."Paragon Decision Resources helps leading companies to improve

When preparing a request for information, be sure to include the
following information:

What is the company name?
Contact name, if different, at the company?
What is your name?
What is your full address?
What is your contact information: Phone: home and work, Fax, Cell,
email,
What is your destination City:  
What is your destination Country? 
What is your move date?  
Is this move confidential?  
Are you moving household goods?
Do you want a preview trip?
Do you need temporary housing?
Do you need Immigration and Visa assistance?
Do you need a home search?
Do you need a school search?
Do you need any personal services available, such as a handyman or
maid?
Do you need an orientation tours?
Do you need ongoing expatriate support?
Are you moving with children and/or pets? 


Then, on to the movers. It didn't appear to me that you wanted
documentation proving I have in fact found "the largest company," that
what you are wanting is a short list of established leaders in the
industry, that have huge volume of global business. I have succeeded
in that. From my search results I selected and investigated several
very large, international moving companies. Where needed, I have
linked to a page inside the site, and included a link to the main page
as well.
