Hi I'm relocating from London to Hong Kong soon, have several A1 sized portfolios of artwork and personal effects (mostly clothes and books), they took up around 100 cubic feet in total when I put them into storage last time. They aren't expensive things but with a lot of sentimental value, so I'd really want to put them in good hands. Can anyone share their experience please? Any shipping company recommendation? Many thanks in advance!

Hi Jam,

There's a very similar thread going on in the Malaysia section. You might get some pointers from that one. See here

thanks for the pointer! i've had a looked around at what people's opinions and it seems that crown and pickfords receive the least negative reviews. if i remember correctly, pickfords seemed to consider my job too small and only replied my enquiry rudely saying that they're "a removal company" and i should "look for a baggage shipping company". crown does have a section called small shipment in their website so i hope they wouldn't give me an answer like that..

i've just got a call from crown and they answered my questions with honesty which is a good sign.. just have to wait and see their quote..
