Northern Ireland to OZ removals?
Hi there, anyone moved recently from Norn Iron down under?
Just looking to get contact details for a few local removal agents, so that I can get an idea of costs and other stuff.
I've seen the big name companys operating from the UK and the associated prices £4,500 to £7,000 for 20ft containers.
Just wondering if Norn iron differs much and also what real experiences my fellow people have had,
Cheers for feedback, hints n tips,

we used browns from belfast, £3700 for 20ft container. took 11 weeks, would highly recommend them. got everything in one piece, and was really well packed and organised.

Re: Northern Ireland to OZ removals?
i`m a plumber by trade but to be honest i would`nt mind what work i was doing, just as long as the money was right. going over in october to validate visas, but if house sells b4 that we`ll go for good. what about yourself, what job you doing? you got kids going with you, if so ,how old and how do they feel about it all
