Not yet, but going to be soon. We're in Las Vegas so container will go from LA, had a few companies quote a while back, but not decided on one yet. There is one called Upack where you load it yourself but you get charged loading time while the driver waits, not sure if it's a good idea or not really, most quotes for a 20ft container are coming in around $8k door to door.

no way!!! $8K!! that's obsurd! I got a quote for 1000lbs in weight in a shared 20ft container for $3, we won't be taking any furniture with us, just boxes.

Yea I know, crazy eh? Which company did you use if you don't mind me asking? How did you work out the weight of your boxes? We don't really have enough for a full container either, but came here from the UK 10 yrs ago with just 2 kids and our suitcases, but the thought of starting over again scares me, especially as everyone says its so expensive in Australia.

I have a friend in Brisbane who moved from here 2 yrs ago and she says bring everything you can fit in the container, where are you heading? Were not even 100% sure on that yet either, its Brisbane or Perth, husband is Electrician so its going to depend on work situation.
