Hi Cindyloo!

try www.sevenseasworldwide.com or theres another called - I think - Excess Baggage

both will ship small amounts (Tea chests) and I think you can arrange cover through them (although I think it is reccomended that you take out your own independently as theirs aren't said to be up to much

i'm doing the tea chest/book box thing, no furniture... horses for courses I suppose... will you get your entire life in 5 tea chests?

i'm using 7 seas... £89 for first tea cheat, then £45 each thereafter... book boxes (also 40kg weight) £22,50.... nisurance is 5% or shipping value...but it doesn't cover breakages to stuff like china...
