Shipping goods
Hi! We plan to ship as little as possible, ie. personal effects and 'things we cannot live without'. Can anyone recommend a shipping Co from UK to Brizzie, and also advise on what and what not to bring? Thanks

We used European Van Lines in 2006, great service and great price too!. We plan to use them again to go back next year

Re: Shipping goods
bring everything if you can
the way i looked at it was that if i sold everything in the u.k i wouldnt get that much for it and then to replace over here with the current exchange rate would have killed us
try all the usual companies and see who is best priced and who you are more comfortable with
john masons , doree bonner , pickfords
i honestly believe that it is just luck / unlucky if you have any breakages as some people really rate some companies where others hate them
we used pickfords a 40ft container to melbourne and didnt have 1 thing broken or missing and a top class service from start to finish
also whoever quotes for you haggle the price down as they are all desperate for the work and the same with insurance as most of them will price match with the lowest quote you can find
