Different packers have different rules - ask your removal firm.

I was NOT allowed to pack any liquids.

Nor was I (from Australia). Although scouse and I don't drink much, we do travel a lot and we always bought duty free alcohol coming back, so we had about 25 bottles of unopened spirits including cognacs, old single malts etc.

Ended up giving it all to family members, they were very happy
