Hi Abergas,
We used a different company, they were pretty good good, We ..well the missus tried to make it easier for them to do there packing.. ie took the pedals off bikes, bought and packed boxes of our own, only for the guy to take all the stuff out of them and say that he wanted to write on the boxes, the missus was not having that at all all over her new boxes, I packed all my electrical stuff, ie.. stereo, DVD player, headphones, kids tv's, xbox's, playstations, valuable's etc, we just felt it was best that we do it rather than them.
We stood over them most of the time, making sure everthing was ok, making sure they didn't pack the suitcases We will be using for the next 7 weeks, didn't fancy wearing a suitcase full of coat hangers to work for the next few weeks,
they was their for 2 days 20ft container, 3 bedroom house, and we filled it up to the back door...wow.
All I can say is make sure they wrap everthing, they managed to break a lamp of ours, by trying not to wrap it up.
Our container went on the 9/5/03 and will arrive we have been told in Fremantle on the 9/7/03
Hope this helps

hi
Ask specific questions on what the insurance covers. We got Masons in for a quote and got a really 'over the top' sales guy. He could sort anything ! However what he told me about the insurance and what the insurance form said in small print were completely different !!
Close call between pickfords and robinsons for us. Decided on Robinsons for price as they were much cheaper.
We ship our stuff 1st week in Aug so i'll then find out if i made the right choice !!
