Default Shipping Glasgow to Brisbane

Anyone had any quotes for shipping from Glasgow to Brisbane?

Received a quote from 1st Move International for a 20ft container. They quoted £5894, which does include their packing service, but still seems very expensive!

Any advice appreciated........

Pickfords door to door, Glasgow to Mackay abt £1100 shared load. They wanted an Aus address which is seemingly for customs but didnt have one. Advice from here was pick a hotel and leave off name of said hotel. When here, get a rental and phone Aus side of Pickfords and give new address. 12-18 weeks but not here yet, maybe another 6 weeks or so. Not a full load but search forum as I remember this question being asked a few times
