Default Only shipping three boxes ...

Hi all,

I just want to ship three smallish boxes to Oz. (I know, I'm a poor brummie with few possesions ...).

Has anybody got any experience with shipping small amounts of stuff to Oz? The big guys seem to have minimum fees which make it uneconomical. Should I just use the post office? or has anyone got a mate with a van who fancies a trip from Birmingham to Sydney overland?

cheers
Dave

Hi,
You could try doing a search for seven seas. They ship small amounts of stuff. I have placed an order with them.
They give the prices of boxes on their website. Not too bad I don't think (price wise). They supply the boxes, tape, bubble wrap and even marker pens to write on the boxes.
If you email them they will e-mail a quote for you.
Hope this helps,
Tracey.

Sorry, still don't know what an url is Obviously not a website then.
Perhaps it's an email address. Not up on computer language. Anyway, their email address is: [email protected]
Hope that's of some use.
