HI

We have two small dogs (maltese Shitzu & Maltese Cavalier), which we moved back to the UK in May 2018.  We are due to Move back to Brisbane, Oz June 2020, will the dogs have to have another round of Rabbles vaccinations or will the last lot still be ok?  My understanding at the time was that the vaccinations lasted 3 years?  How long will they need to be in quartile for when they arrive in Brisbane?  Are you also able to give me a quote?  Flying from Essex to Brisbane

We shipped a 20ft container recently from Brisbane to South East UK and used OSS World Wide Movers, the packing crew we had were excellent and none of our belongings were damaged.  

Depends on what you're shipping. If not a lot check out Movecube http://www.sevenseasworldwide.com/en-au/moving/movecube
You can also send boxes separately if you're really not taking a lot.

Hi

Can anyone please recommend shipping company from Brisbane to UK, there used to be a section on here for shipping from OZ to UK but can't find it?  

Thanks

We made the decision as a family, got an empty container delivered, sold the house and booked our tickets. It was all very straightforward when we got here, schools, doctor, banks etc all very easy.

Hi Bristolman, did you book a self pack container? If so how did you find that? We want to ship most of our stuff back and wanted to do the self pack container option as its cheaper. Can I ask who did you use?

Hi

Has anyone used a "self pack" container service, and did you save money compared to a packaging company coming in and doing the whole package for you? We used a removals on the way over here but moving back to the UK and looking for the cheapest option.

Thanks

I know how you are feeling, we went back in June for 3 weeks spent lovely time with family and friends some I haven't see for 10 years since we first left. We spent a week in London doing the whole tourist bit and loved it! I worked in London many years ago for four years but never really appreciated the place until now. We long to move back we were all in tears when we left but I have an 17 year old who loves it in OZ and has a girlfriend and swears he will never leave. We like your selves just don't know what to do. We have never felt like we belonged in OZ and going back to UK just cemented those feelings once more.

You have to follow your heart if you are unhappy your daughter will pick up on it, I am sure if you made the move back and would be happy she would be able to cope with it. It does help talking about it out loud I miss home so much but can only really talk to my husband about it as he feels the same way, some family members think were mad but they haven't lived it. Good luck on whatever you decide, your not alone.
