I live in the US, if that makes any difference. When a family moves overseas, how do they get their furniture, vehicles, etc to their new place of residence?

You can load things on a standard shipping container and hire a trucking company to take it to a port. Then it will be sent from that port, to any port in the world. Then there are trucking companies that will haul it to the final destination.
The shipping containers have been standardized worldwide. You can always tell an overseas shipping container as it will have specially reinforced corners with holes so they can all be bolted together so they don’t fall off the ship:

They come in several different lengths, 20 foot, 40 foot and I think 53 foot is the biggest, but I’m not sure.
