Question Another question about what you can take

I know it's a stupid question but can you take a vacuum cleaner?

Thought it might be quite dodgy due to it's purpose! But pays to check.

Or just buy a new one before you leave and declare it at customs -that's what I did. I was meant to be cleaning our old DC04 Dyson, had a look in Argos, and got a new DC07 for £150. Have spoken to Pickfords and they reckon it'll get through customs with no charges to pay as it's worth so little

I was damned if I was going to clean every nook and cranny of the old dyson - I had about a week, better things to do with my time lol

We just gave both vacuums a wipe over and removed the bags, and no problems from customs - both boxes had been highlighted on the inventory and opened.

They probably just wonted to do a littlecleaning and watch the bugs go around inside (if you have a Dyson that is)
