Post Moving to Brisbane

I hope to move to Brisbane by the end of the year. Please can anyone give me feedback on the removalist they used. I have read horror stories of one so will not be contacting them. From my researches I have Crown, PSS, Whites, John Masons in mind.
I am moving much of the contents of a 3 bed house.
Have been told to leave washing machine, fridge and TV.
Any advice from those who have done this will be appreciated.

Hi Guy's,

We used Excess International, not the cheapest out there, but the service was exceptional. We had sole use of a 20ft container which we had no problem filling with stuff from our 4-bedroomed house. Our container was cleared and unpacked by Kent International here in Brisbane. Again excellent service and when you have finish unpacking everything they come and take away all the waste packing materials.

Would suggest that you ship the washing machine, we didn't, but did bring our tumble dryer. Not that we need to use it that much. White goods tend be more expensive here than in the UK, but shopping around helps you get a good deal.

If you need anymore help just PM me.
