It's really hard to give a ball park figure without knowing your individual requirements.

Shipping costs are made up of a number of factors including (but not limited to...):

• the volume of goods you wish to move
• how quickly you need your belongings
• the services you choose (packing, insurance, crating, handyman)
• your special requirements (out of the ordinary items for example or additional collection points)
• access to your origin and destination properties and the distance from the ports
• the type of company you choose to move with (for example the quality certifications they might have)
