Recommend/Questions Intl Shipping from Toronto to UK
My family will be moving this summer as I am already in the UK. Im wondering if anyone has any recommendations for a shipping company that will pick up from around the Toronto area and ship to the UK.
I would possibly be interested in someone who can get all the furniture out of my house and pack it safely, while I don't mind packing up the rest of the house in boxes.
Also from anyone who has done this what is the approximate cost for something like this, along with delivery time?

Re: Recommend/Questions Intl Shipping from Toronto to UK
We recently moved from Toronto to the UK. We didn't have a great expereince with ours, but it should take around 4 weeks. The removal firm will know the shipping dates so it can help you time your shipment accordingly. You may find that the firm would want to pack everything themselves, and the cost for them doing that probably isn't that much more. I recommend getting insurance. It won't be included in the cost. It seemed like an unnecessary extra to us, but we were glad we had it as we ended up having to make a claim.
