Originally founded as Lancaster in 1856, Lincoln offers its residents a choice of neighbourhoods in which to live, from small, quiet town areas to contemporary accommodations in the south and east areas. The vast majority of Lincolnโ€™s economy comes from the manufacturing and service industries, with the government and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln also contributing greatly. The city hosts endless cultural events throughout the year, from the International Thespian Festival in June to the ConStellation Science Fiction Festival in April. The Lied Center is the ideal place to catch a national tour of the latest Broadway show and there are several other live theatre and music venues throughout the city. Expats can take a break from busy city life by exploring the many parks, gardens and trails throughout Lincoln. This city is full of countless opportunities and itโ€™s no wonder many expats find their new home here in Lincoln, Nebraska.

Relocating to Lincoln is sure to be a smooth, stress free process. If you are unsure on what size shipping container to use, hereโ€™s a simple gauge to help you decide: The contents of a 3-bedroom house should fit nicely inside a 20-foot container, whereas the contents of a 4 or 5-bedroom house would be better suited to a 40-foot container. A 40-foot container could also hold a medium sized vehicle, such as a family car, plus the items from inside a 3-bedroom house.
