Got Visas!!!

Hi All

Just to let you know that we got the word last Friday that Visas been granted - still to get passports verified - but that only takes up to 10 days - WOW what a feeling.

All go from now.

Looking for advice on Shippers - ie. containers.

Who is best/what to take etc.

Got a motorbike - good one, house furniture, personal belongings etc.

What the way to go - any advice - be really really gratetful.

Many thanks
Gary & Senga

Congratulations on the visa,i bet its all systems go now,lol.We used crown relo for shipping and they were great,they seem to get good feedback on here too.As for the bike and furniture it normally boils down to personal choice and how good your stuff is.We brought 18 boxes mainly of clothes and tools so bought everything but lots of guys ship a container out,thats another dilema for you,lol
