PSS are shipping our stuff to Brisbane, they've been brilliant so far. They're a family firm, even though they're national. They're very busy just now so I would contact them soon.

Hi Brisgal,
I didn't have any horror stories to tell but then again I wasn't moving to much stuff. The one thing I would advise is to keep all log numbers, shipping details, dates and phone calls logged, but i'm sure you are anyway ;-)

One thing I wasn't expecting was extra payment at the Bris end for storage (per day charge), docking/port tax and payment for a quarantine/customs inspection. I can't remember how much it was now as it was over a year ago but its worth checking out.

Good Luck

Buster.
