Removal companies can easily offer you a shared container if that's what you want.   But the company has to offer it to you, it's not up to you to find someone to share a container with.

You'll find the Movecube will work better because it's more secure, less likely to lose your stuff.

arguments for arguments sake,,,,,,,,,,jog on

No you didn't have to give it up - someone advised you badly.

After 2 previous attempts i was told by my senator who after speaking to border force that if i agreed to leave permanently i would get permission........thats the truth

No one is going to share a container, there are too many liability issues.  A Movecube would be absolutely ideal for what you need:

Hi all.

iv been in Perth 4 years and came back to the UK in May for work due to the downturn.My family are still in Perths north and i miss them and want to come back over.Iv been in construction for 30 years.I can multi trade but as all the brits in Perth know it means nothing.I was laying bricks for several months and then worked on maintenance as most of the poms end up doing.I have my building diploma, first aid trained, work at heights, asbestos removal and would like to ask if people there would keep their ears open for me. Previous work with Dale Alcocks, webb brown neaves etc etc.

Really appreciate it cheers 

all about who you know in WA im afraid, and thats when times are good..... pretty much covered by Very Stormy

Hey there after having no work in Perth i came to The Uk .My family are still in Perth and im trying to get back there, so as to get my kids through school, 3 years left. Does anyone know if a proffessional resume is beneficial or a waste of time.The Aussis love the word "'Qualified'" let me know your thoughts. Im in construction and aquired my builders diploma, and other stuff, first aid, asbestos, work at heights .If anyone knows a good resume writer please advise. I fancy a career change too so anyone with an opening , drop me a line.PLEASE stick to topic.

Regards

Hi there not been on for some time ,i have got back in the UK after having worked my nuts off in Perth for 4 years.i simply cannot afford it any more.  I achieved getting my Building Diploma, does anyone know if this is transferable in the UK .    PS isnt beer cheap here wohooooo

Hi There i havent been on for a while so was wondering if i could get some advice from those who have returned.

After being here for 4 years work has dried up in construction and i hear its busy in blighty.

Is anyone able to tell me how does the new car tax work as its not in your windscreen anymore. Any advice for getting good van insurance without no claims bonus as here in WA insurance is not obligatory. i was getting around to it.

Thanks for the help 

Thanks guys we are looking at all options but it is seriously tough, i dont give up easy and will keep trying

im in construction its dead. It took me 10 years to get here so its not been taken lightly about going back. Its so bad that if we leave it any longer we wont have the air fare.

Very worrying, iv been offered lots of work back in the UK so hoping to save up and come back later

We're outta here as soon as.....
