Shipping Singapore to UK
 
Hi all
does anyone have any recommendations for shipping household items from SG to London?

I've seen the Bournes forum here too

Ta!

Have had two expat postings in Singapore. Can recommend KC Dat (Asian Tigers) and Santa Fe.

We moved from Singapore to Sydney but, just to add another into the mix, the Singapore Crown crew were fantastic. How they got in what they got in our container I still don't know.

Oh no, just the volume! My husband has never forgiven them for managing to get the Christmas tree in, it was left until virtually last just in case. The KS mattress was last in and I still don't know how they closed the doors. (12 years later, the tree is in storage in Sydney as we are in the US. What can I say, I'm from Yorkshire, I don't like to throw good things out :o And it was second hand when I got it.)

Back to being serious, they're only ever as good as their local crews or who they subcontract to. Our Sydney experience was average. Look into that aspect too.
