Default Advance Transportation of Tools

I am looking for advice on the best way to transport about 70 kilo of tools to Australia.

I would ideally like the tools to be sent out in advance or come out with us. We are plannng on coming over around September time this year.

Any advice gratefully received.

i looked into this, it can be done by air freight do not use a one of the removal companies as they just act as a middleman, i was quoted £650 for 200 kgs flying from manchester to perth on the same singapore ailines flight as us.

they work it out on volumetric kilos, so they take the size and give it a weight, if it is heaver than you pay more,,,so tools is not to bad as they are going to be heavy anyway.

if you contact yout airline they will put you in touch with their frieght forwarding agents,,,and be prepered to barter with them
