Hi
Does anyone have any idea how long we can expect to wait for our goods to arrive from the UK to Australia. We are sharing space in a container..
Thanks

the problem with shared containers is that you could be delayed whilst waiting for it to be filled
have you spoken to any of the shipping companies yet? they normally give you a ball park idea from what i've seen this can range from 6 weeks to 3 months
our experience with a shared container was something like this
goods packed mid Jan, shipment left mid Feb (waiting to be filled), boat arrived Sydney end March, delivered to us mid April... so 3 months all up
