if you're travelling by air don't forget 'unaccompanied baggage' - I think it still exists and it used to be quite reasonable.

Re: Container Sharing to Mumbai
I have carried some research and wondered if anyone has used cargo
express as they delver door to door at £1.50 per kilo approx plus handing charge. Keith |

Can you post more details/links on this company as the cost seems ludicrously cheap (unless the handling charge is massive?)

actually it works out at £1,500 a tonne - which is expensive for large shipments - you can ship a small container for not much more than that.

Keith This is only cost effective for courier type shipments ..... as mentioned by someone else, it becomes incredibly expensive for shipments of any size. This is not the method you should use to be cost effective for large personal effects. |
Re: Container Sharing to Mumbai
This might be worth a phone call?
HERALD BUSINESS DESK PANJIM, FEB 1 Kingfisher Airlines announced plans to launch Kingfisher Xpress, a door-to-door cargo delivery service from tomorrow. Though Kingfisher Xpress wouldn’t be having a pick-up facility in Goa, it would however deliver cargo in Goa. Kingfisher Xpress Same Day Service would be the country’s first and only same day delivery by air service, with a money-back guarantee. The service promises to pick up shipments from the customer's doorstep and deliver them at the recipient's doorstep on the same day. It will offer a pick up facility in the six main metropolitan cities - Mumbai, New Delhi, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai and Kolkata with guaranteed same day delivery in up to 18 cities - Bagdogra, Bangalore, Chennai, Coimbatore, Delhi, Kochi, Goa, Guwahati, Hyderabad, Indore, Kolkata, Mumbai, Raipur, Ranchi, Lucknow, Nagpur, Pune and Srinagar. "Kingfisher Xpress has been conceived with a view to serving the unmet needs of users who are looking for a solution which ensures that their shipment reaches the recipient’s doorstep on the very same day. Our confidence in this service reflects in our money back guarantee. Kingfisher Xpress will also offer a next-day delivery service across 20 cities in India," Prakash Mirpuri, VP-Corporate Communications, Kingfisher Airlines said. According to a press release from the company, the service will also offer some other flexible shipping options. These include a door to airport service that offers pickup of shipments from the shipper’s door step and delivery at the destination airport, to the authorized representative of the shipper. The airport to door service offers the flexibility of delivering the shipment at the airport and a door delivery at the destination while the counter to counter service is designed for customers who can deliver the shipment to the Kingfisher Xpress centre in the origin city and have it picked up from the company's centre in the destination city. Maybe you can drop things off at VJ's villa at Sinquerim? |
