Jeez! That is inflation for you. We paid 4K GBP 18 months ago and thought that was steep. The price of oil I guess? We used Crown BTW and had a lot of problems with them this end but I think we were unlucky / they have improved as I haven't heard too many other complaints recently.

Those quotes are for 40ft containers though Ast, most people only take a 20ft and I think they come in at around £3,000 to £3,500

I'm paying £1245 for my 20ft sole use container - loading myself.

Once in Freo I have to pay a further $1000 or so for offloading inspection etc the other end. I have the details of that somewhere i'll try and find them out.

The container will arrive at my house on a lowloader - I get 3 hours to load it, then they take it off to docks.
Gonna be all hands on deck that day to get it all done in 3 hours

Hi, i've sent my app in Nov (495 SIR) still waiting for Case Officer.

Im emigrating with my husband Barrie who is a painter/decorator and our daughter Ebony who is 1. My mam and stepdad are also applying!!!

We are hoping to go to the Mandurah area of Perth, been looking at Secret Harbour it looks lovely. Does anyone know what the other areas of Mandurah are like?? (Greenfields, Dudley Park, Silver Sands, Parklands etc)

Would love to hear from anyone looking to go to the same area or some that are already there.

What type of rental are you looking for, and which part of perth. References for rentals are not normal a problem as a new arrival, so long as you can how an ability to pay the rent, and any how you should be able to use you uncle. (I have read other post)

Have Pm you re Thursday, hopefully you will come along and hopefully we maybe able to help or at least point you in the right direction of help.
