We are hoping to go end of the year/early 07. We have 3 children so lots of toys and DVD's to pack. When are you going and do you know where abouts in the Gold coast. We are hoping Mudgeeraba/Robina.

Hi Jane, i have looked back at all the past threads on removal companies and all of them have some kind of negative point to them, but Crown do have alot of positive feed back as well. We think we are going with Crown as i do like the idea of having them all through the process, i not sure about there insurance might take that out with some one else.

We are going on the West midland meet up in 2 weeks so looking forward to that.

Noticed you have reached a 1000 posts, sending k your way

Yes we used Crown and cannot fault them.....but my friend who has just emigrated and used Crown has just had a phone call from them to say that someone forgot to off load their container in melbourne and it is still on the ship heading for NZ!! Not sure how much blame you can put on Crown for that happening? And besides you will never get 100% positive feedback about any company. Things will go wrong from time to time. You just hope it won't be you. Personnally I was very impressed with them..they packed really well and kept us up to date on its progress and delivered when they said it would be.

Hi, just received our quote for a four bed house from co.durham to perth.
£3970.This is for sole use of a 20 foot container,without insurance and up to four weeks free storage in the uk.
Is this good?as no other company has yet replied

Sounds brilliant compared to the quotes I got!

We have had the same experience as others. We went with Crown in 1997 and came back with them. We did not have as much as a glass broken, men very helpful and friendly. So much so we are using them again this year. Quote approx £3900 and Letton Percival were the cheapest for insurance at 1.5% of value of goods being shipped. Out of all the quotes Crown made us feel more at ease and they were very professional.

Good luck.
