I am looking to transport my Korg Kronos 2 88 key internationally from India to US. Does anyone have any suggestions for reliable services (packers movers) that can transport the Korg internationally? [/u]

I used this company in 2011 to ship 88 key Korg triton extreme from south east asia. India is on their shipment origin list.
I put the Keyboard in a heavy duty keyboard case and padded it with styrofoam and a thick blanket with some cardboard. Better to pack it in a keyboard design heavy duty transport case. I got mine from "Gator cases", made specifically for transporting keyboards.

They used DHL to pick up my shipmemt and a mix of Philippines airlines and DHL ground transport to deliver in USA.
I had one of three boxes delayed because it was misrouted to Tahiti. I had my original Hawaii shipping label still on the box and they read that instead of the new lable. The closest they could get it to Hawaii was Tahiti. So i got a call from the shippers who asked where it was actually going and they found the new label and confirmed with me to send it to my correct destination. The box got to my door 2 days later after sorting out the 3 week delay confusion.

Be careful to have no other labels or address markings on the box except for what pertains to the current shipping information.

I set up for ocean freight but ended up getting a mix of air freight and ground transport because the origin country did not have the right ocean shipping options. If your country has all shipping options, they will go with your choice.
