We've recently (within the last 4 weeks) had quotes from five different container companies and all have said no wicker, no basketwear, no dried flowers, seeds, xmas decs with fir cones, etc, etc. Sorry. Pretty crap I know, we've had to sell/give/throw loads of stuff away.

I am sure that you could find the MAF website somewhere and it might have info on it.
Leighlou, we had/have the same ikea baskets and also underbed ones and we took them all there and all the way back. They were not bothered at all by them, i had all my shoes in them and they were more bothered about them.

Re: Please Please Please help........
you can! We took our wicker dog bed, all munched but sentimental, about 6 wicker baskets and various other things - they were all on the itinery and MAF didnt even ask to see them. Also even if they did and werent happy all they would want is to fumigate them .. at a cost) and it would be up to you if you wanted to go with that ...
We were worried about all sorts of stuff, but our MAF man told us that they're not trying to catch people out, their biggest concern is seeds ( this is what he told us) so take it - you have nothing to loose - the absolute worst case scenario is that they will confiscate it if you dont want it fumigated.

Course you can take your wicker stuff, it's not like it's got strange seed pods hanging off it is it, or is growing a new undiscovered killer bacteria culture.
If you're really worried pack it to the front of the container all together with the other stuff MAF may want to take a look at.
