Re: Moved: shipping goods

Try Robinsons International.
They charge about £3500 for a sole use 20ft container with insurance on top.
Take the groupage insurance option too. It's not expensive and it's dead easy.

Re: Do you know where I can find the link to goods to follow forms?

These forms are a little confusing. :blink:
