conandviv Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Can anyone give me an idea of shipping costs to move our household stuff from north west UK to Adelaide (cost of a container), and/or recommend any companies you have used? Thanks for any advice, much appreciated! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirstyLP Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Can anyone give me an idea of shipping costs to move our household stuff from north west UK to Adelaide (cost of a container), and/or recommend any companies you have used? Thanks for any advice, much appreciated! :-) Hi, quotes can vary massively depending on your individual circumstances, type of goods, packing requirements, volume etc so your best bet is to invite 3 companies to do an in home move consultation and provide you a free, no obligation quote. You can find a list of FIDI FAIM certified (the professional international moving qualification) companies on their website http://www.fidi.org. Hope that helps?

Thanks for the information, that's really useful for us. If you don't mind me asking you a couple more questions: Where will your container sail from? Will it sail to the port in Adelaide? Have you got a costing for transporting your stuff to the container in the UK? ...and from the container in Adelaide? Thanks! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
