Shipping boxes from uk
 
I want someone in the uk to send the occasional box (up to 5/10kg) of various 'goodies' - clothes, cosmetics etc.
Can anyone give me suggestions of reliable, reasonable companies to use?
I don't want a collection service as that means someone in the uk will have to stay in all day, much easier for them to take it to a depot (in Edinburgh) at their convenience.
Any help/information very gratefully received

If it's enough to fill a tea chest or book carton you could try PSS removals. http://www.pssremovals.com/shipping_..._australia.php
I used them very good.

If it's smaller I'd think you'd have to look at maybe a courier company or parcelforce.

We did not bring a container, but rather used these people for 15 boxes sent from London to Sydney. Have recommended them to many others since and I have yet to hear a bad report. Get a quote and decide for yourself.

I second Seven Seas. I used the pick up service, but I think there was also the option to drop off at their depot.
