Default Taking giant bean bag?

Hi,
I have a giant bean bag, meant for out doors but kept in the front room. A friend already in Oz said that they can be dodgy to take into the country. Mine is made of all new materials and looks new. Removals company didn't mention it as a potential problem, so can we bring it?

Sounds disgusting. I'm sure AQIS would destroy it if it were.

Can't you empty it and buy new filling when you get to Aus ? The polystyrene beans are sold here in huge bags for not much money in many of the homeware shops.
