San Francisco, often translated as San Francisco or San Francisco in Chinese, is the central metropolis of Northern California and the San Francisco Bay Area, as well as a cultural, commercial and financial centre. It has been one of the centres of American hippie culture and recent liberalism and progressivism in the 20th and early 21st centuries. It is known for its cool summers, foggy, rolling hilly terrain, mixed architectural styles, and attractions such as the Golden Gate Bridge, cable cars, Alcatraz prison and Chinatown. In addition, San Francisco is home to the headquarters of many large companies and organisations, most notably the internet industry.

After selling their domestic house in Yueyang, Ms Wen's family was ready to move to San Francisco, USA. They had already bought a new house, but found that buying furniture straight from the US was expensive. They discussed and decided to save money by shipping luggage items from their domestic home to their new home in the US.

According to the list of items provided by the customer, it was expected that the total volume of items to be transported by Ms Man would be about 28m³. When making the transport plan, Hippo specialists suggested the customer to choose the way of shipping the whole container by sea. Hippo also provided free delivery service and packing guide to help the customer to pack. In addition, the customer had some large furniture and fragile artefacts. Since moving to the US has a long transit time and high turnover, it is especially important to pack the items in a comprehensive manner. In order to ensure the safety of the transport, Hippo's staff will use professional packing materials to pack the items when picking up the goods from the door, the following is the packing site:
