Who took what?
Ok then guys, house sale is going well now looking around the house and trying to decide what to take over with us.
We are thinking of taking our 4 seater sofa and 2 arm chairs as they new and our bed. So would people recommend taking white goods and bedroom furniture? Cheers all |

Cheers all We took everything except for the white goods, as everything is very expensive here, if you do search you can find a lot of threads on this subject.;) |

Take every single thing and I mean every single thing whatever be the quality. You won't regret it. We did just that and really glad we did.

I suppose it might also be true to say that the more familiar items you have around you the less likely you are to be homesick about sentimental aspects of your possessions.
This is just my personal experience having done both. First arrived with just our suitcases and setting up home from scratch albeit on a small scale (but plenty of family support). Then hubby joined us 18 months later and all our stuff was finally shipped out. We now have a fridge, washing machine, microwave, sofa-bed etc sitting in our garage which I have to get rid off soon! |

Bring everything. No question about it.

If you're bring anything, bring it all. Even (especially) white goods. |
Re: Who took what?
We went the other direction but took literally everything, it just makes life so much easier.

Everything but the car :thumbsup:

Re: Who took what?
Everything, remember your books. My cook books are in the loft in the UK :(
Things you think you'll just replace (saucepans etc) cost a small fortune here |
Re: Who took what?
Yes, clean everything and bring it, we regret giving so much away...

Re: Who took what?
Cheers guys, that settles it we'll bring our stuff

Re: Who took what?
So in a similar position, but not expecting to leave UK until next April.
My washer / dryer is very old and I'm surprised it's still working. Buy a new one here now and ship or wait and buy new on arrival? Also, we will be moving into a short term rental when sale goes through - would you send the furniture in advance? Thanks :) |
