When calculating the number of boxes of items, I would suggest you increase it by at least half again - it's amazing how you can underestimate what you actually have, and how little goes into a box!

It really doesn't have to be too detailed -

10 boxes of books - $200
2 boxes of kitchen equipment - $300
4 boxes of glassware, china & cutlery - $300
1 Double bed base - $400
1 Dining room table, 4 chairs - $1500
5 boxes of bedding - $400
3 boxes of towels, quilts and assorted linens - $600
2 boxes of paperwork - $0 (NCV)
1 Computer (Dell) Model xyz, serial number 3999933 - $2000
2 boxes assorted computer accessories - $320
1 Camera's (Kodak) Model xyz, serial number 300449 - $250
1 Hitachi Stereo, speakers and surround sound - $450
4 boxes CD's - $560

and so on and so forth.

Any electrical items must have their serial numbers and model listed.
All values are replacement value.
Any high value items must be listed separately with a description.

Can I ask what I hope isn't a silly question.?

We have just had an appointment / quote with Anglo pacific for a shared container. They dropped off a few boxes 5 + 6 cubic ft in size. I asked for these to give us an idea what small personal items we could cram into them and ultimately decide on the overall amount of goods we will be bringing.

You gave a list above which lists x1 box of 'specific item' Etc. but can I clarify that it's perfectly ok to have a 6cubic ft box, and have that described as 'x1 box of - paperwork, bed linen, photographs, cd's'..?

Thanks

1 x book box (and then listed the contents)
