Default send my stuff back to UK

Hi,

I have a few electrical appliances, clothes and a few other bits and bobs that would fit in 3 large boxes.

what is the cheapest method for sending it all back to UK?

do I just pack the stuff up myself and take to airport cargo?

any companies do the packing and sending for me at a good price?

any help greatly appreciated

I have the same question, but from the other side of the coin.

Can anyone recommend a good shipping company to send my stuff from London to Dubai?

I don't have that much stuff really. My LCD telly (I can't leave it behind ), a few hundred CD's and DVD's, Desktop computer and more kids toys than you can shake a stick at.

I think that may be something like four or five large UK packing boxes (ie you could probably fit it in the back of a Land Cruiser with the seats down)

Any rough ideas on how much this would be likely to cost?

computer and tele, stick 'em in a suitcase and lug them with you...cd's and stuff, box up and post it in the mail cattle ship class, be cheap, take a couple months maybe....what I did getting most of my shite to the US.
