Who would you choose?
We are having difficulty deciding who to ship our goods. People recommend Crown but have found them to be quite expensive and unflexible. We dont have much to take. Around 200 cubic feet.
Thank you x

We are using a local N.I company called McGimpseys, and we a mainly using them because they have close links with OSS in Melbourne who the wife used when coming to Ireland and found them excellent

Pickfords did ours, Devon to NSW, they were great - no complaints.
(But we didn't pay, so I can't comment on the price!)
Have you tried getting quotes from Australian companies? I'm sure I saw on here quite recently that it can be much cheaper to do it that way round.

Doree Bonner. Excellent imo.
Crown are more for executive relocations. They'll do your regular move but they'll charge you an arm and a leg for the privilege.
DB use Grace this end who, imo, are excellent.
