After extensive research I've managed to price a few things, all of which I think are at the best cost for the quality/ service/ reliability we need. This is in relation to moving to Perth in September 2003.

Moving costs.

Shipping of 20ft Container (Doree Bonner - everything done for you) = £3026 (58 day slow crossing)
Shipping Insurance covering £30000 using an Independent broker (EH Morgan & Sons) = £220 (£250 excess)
Shipping two cats (Lady Haye, better known as easypets) = £650 (Not including Import permit)
Flights for two adults & one baby (Quantus) = £1143 (one way)

First week in Perth (or on going) costs whilst we get ourselves sorted out.

Car Hire (Bayswater Car rental) = £28 per week (Can't believe it - I must have it wrong)
Standard Chalet (Fremantle Village - Self-contained) = £100 per week (Includes linen/ power)

I know it's not everything but it's a start and certainly the biggies.

Anyone else off to Perth with some costings they would like to share.
Any questions don't hesitate to ask.

-----------------------------------

Sorry I did get it wrong (didn't allow $8 per day insurance) therefore it's approx £50 per week

we booked our fligths for 12th sept through Malaysia Airlines which i believe but correct me if i am wrong 30kg baggage allowance - we paid £1211 for 2 x adults one child and one infant

Unless it's gone up it was 25kg allowance in April this year with Malaysian. Plus max of 7kg for hand luggage, but within the set dimensions they give you.

Hope that helps
