Default Sending boxes ...not going for the container option

We are planning on sending some boxes, between 5 & 10, rather then a container load. Does anyone have any reccomendations on how to send these??
Our local mailboxes inc shop can send a tea crate size for £125 with no weight limit ...has anyone found any cheaper alternatives??

That's not half bad - is that for air freight or shipping?

Express Baggage are also worth a look:

When I researched this a few months ago, Excess Baggage were marginally cheaper for Air Freight. But the prices probably change all the time.

Does anyone know how big a tea chest is and what kind of stuff you can put in it.
