Temporary Accommodation in Perth and Shipping Advice
 
I am moving to Perth when I receive my visa. the problem I have is on temporary accommodation.

Basically, I would like to hear from people who have made it on how they look for temporary accommodation before arriving in Australia. Any contact on people who helps with temporary accommodation is very appreciated.

The shipping companies said I need to give them a contact address in Australia for custom purposes.

It would also be great if I can get feedback on people who have used shipping companies from the UK. I have talked to several, like Anglo Pacific, PSS, Pickfords and Excess Baggage. Do people have any good or bad experience with them?

www.staz.com.au has loads of temp accom. We used Pickfords for our shipping to Australia as well as our interstate move and they were very good both times.

Thanks everyone. Since I am on my own, no point renting a house. The www.staz.com.au website is not working.
