About Us
Australian-owned brand helping you settle comfortably from day one.
Our Story
Hi, I’m Kartik Malhotra
Founder of SettleBox
Over the past 7 years, I’ve moved about 25 times across different homes and cities — driven by opportunities, lease changes, and life’s unexpected turns.
I know firsthand how overwhelming and exhausting relocating can be, especially when you’re adjusting to a new country, culture, and life. That’s why I created SettleBox — to make the moving experience easier, more comfortable, and personalized for international students, skilled migrants, and anyone starting fresh in Australia.
What Drives Us
Moving isn’t just about changing your address. It’s about finding your place, your comfort, and your community.
But let’s be honest — the logistics (packing, shopping, deliveries, delays) can take away the joy of starting fresh.
SettleBox steps in to solve that.
We deliver thoughtfully curated, customizable essentials kits — from bedding to kitchenware — directly to your new doorstep.
We’re here to go that extra mile, so you feel settled, not scrambled, from the moment you arrive.
Our Promise to You
Personalized Care
Every customer is different — we aim to understand your specific needs and lifestyle.
Reliable Support
Questions about your kit, shipping, or customization? We're here every step of the way.
Quality & Convenience
We source premium products and package them for efficiency, ease, and minimal stress.
We’ve Lived It Too
Because I’ve walked this path myself, I know how to make it easier for you.
I moved to Australia at 18 and completed my Bachelor of Business (International Hotel Management) from Le Cordon Bleu.
During my studies, I served as the Academic Board Representative, advocating for student needs and experiences at the board level. I also worked part-time and casual jobs, balancing education with real-world hustle.
Before that, I earned several badminton championships, including a gold medal at the Chandigarh State Badminton Championship — a symbol of the discipline and drive that still fuels SettleBox today.
Where We’re Headed
We’re proudly built in Australia — starting with newcomers landing in Perth, Sydney, and beyond.
But the need for SettleBox isn’t local. It’s global. Millions of people relocate each year, and we believe they all deserve a smoother, more welcoming experience
Our mission is to grow with you — from your first Smart Bag to helping you settle wherever life takes you next.
Australia today. The world tomorrow.
