Aunt Agatha Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Grace are coming to do a "walkthrough" on Monday to give me a quote for shipping our stuff back. I have heard lots of good reviews about them and I'm happy to share the quote once I have it but was wondering in the meantime if anyone has used OSS and can review please? OSS gave a good quote based on my online estimate but I'm guessing they will need to walk through too to give a truly accurate quote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jane66 Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Hi, like you, we are heading back to the UK early 2015 and we are starting to get some idea of shipping and who to use. Have been in touch with Grace (because of good reviews read on the net - they've also had some bad ones too!) but would be very interested to see how you go with your walkthrough by them and your first impressions! I think from what I've read they all seem to be very much around the same price, but people have haggled and got a better price! Good luck with your move :smile: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aunt Agatha Posted October 9, 2014 Author Share Posted October 9, 2014 Thanks @Jane66 I'll come back and post after the walkthrough and quote. I think we'll need around 12 cubic metres so either two Movecubes or a shared container. I will attempt to haggle! Good luck with your move too :-) Will PM you now 3FatCats.

Prairie Girl Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Hi, we had OSS here in Sydney and the guys were polite and careful, so no complaints. I used Kent once and wasn't happy at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwheeler1 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Hi Aunt Agatha, I'm literally in the same boat as you. We've looked at a MoveCube but OH thinks its too small. We want to bring a L shaped modular (which comes apart) and a two seater, a queen mattress, a large (and heavy) glass table. About 15 boxes (including one Christmas tree box) and 2 suitcases. So its either 2 movecubes but then for "nearly" the same price you can get groupage and they come pack it, and send it for you. I'm getting a walk through next week with Conroys, OSS and Chess. Would be great to get your feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aunt Agatha Posted October 12, 2014 Author Share Posted October 12, 2014 Hi gwheeler1, happy to share all my findings :-) DH is currently making an estimated list of our boxes - better go and help him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
