Still checking out quotes for moving over to Australia in August. We did have our sights set on a medium movecube but we do now believe that they are not worth it. We did put a deposit down on a medium movecube (107 Cubic Feet/ 3.04 cubic m) costing £1126 for shipping, however, we have to pay £1044 on the other side for customs. That second cost seems insane.
We then looked at a large movecube (216 cubic feet/ 6.14 cubic m) which would cost £2154 and then a whopping £1581 on the other side for customs... Am I missing something?
I've now asked John Mason for a quote and given them 216 cubic feet as a reference and they have come back with £1317 and a £220 AQIS charge for the inspection of goods in Perth.
PSS Removals have come back even cheaper...... are these quotes fishing me in or are there hidden costs the movecube covers that these other companies don't stat?e
