Living in perth looking to maybe make a move back to uk,not sure if a 40ft container or a 20ft container will be used,but I was wondering anyone who moved back who did you use and how recent was it and what was your quotes or price.
its on the cards to make a return unless things get better for me so just wanted to start the ball rolling on a possible move or costs.

I got a quote to ship about a dozen boxes to Ireland and the price was exorbitant (I don't have enough to fill a container). For me it'll be cheaper to send the stuff I really want to keep through Australia Post, and live out of suitcase in Melbourne for a few months.

I never bought any furniture so everything I own is clothes, book, trinkets, that sort of thing. Maybe I always knew I'll be leaving Perth and kept my belongings to a minimum?

I'll move the thread to the UK forum as we have several people in there who have gone back recently and can recommend shippers

I got a quote recently from Kent Removals for boxes Brisbane to the UK and it was a lot cheaper than I expected

Hi

We used Chess (2010) they were by far the cheapest from Perth to the UK (times may have changed though) we also thought we would use a 40ft container but when we decided to have a clear out (glad we did in the end but very painful lol at the time) we had a 20ft container so the cost was even cheaper. We had quotes from Kent, Chess and I think the other company was Pickfords? good luck with whichever way you choose

Unless things change soon i maybe looking to head back to uk,i was wondering anyone who came here and shipped back to uk, who you used,costs and what size of container used.
I used whites back in uk who then use if i remember kent over here,all was fine apart from one large item with slight damage and couple of small items but overall was very happy.
I am just looking to get quotes and need a list of companies who ship from perth to uk and take it from there.
I have until end of june before i need to leave my rental so if i get things moving im half way there.
If things change soon then i may extend my stay longer and will not need to move back.
Ones i know of are.
