juderay Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Hi one and all - haven't been on for a while as we arrived in Perth 5 weeks ago and then a few days later my dad took ill (in Perth) and spent the next 3 wks in hospital. Pleased to say that after surgery he is now home and on the mend. However we had our goods delivered today - exactly 2 months since they packed us up in the UK. We had a fantastic experience with the packers, John Mason, in the Uk and today their counterparts Kent International have been just as fantastic. Nothing was broken, everything turned up and the guys unpacked, set up our furniture and took away all the packing material. They would have unpacked our boxes too but we were happy to do that ourselves. However we only have to give the office a ring and they will come and collect the empty boxes and packing paper. I can't praise and recommend enough this company and the truly positive experience we have had. Moving is stressful enough and they ensured we had no stress whatsoever with the transport of our goods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xtonite Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Glad to hear you Dad is on the mend. Good to hear your experience with John Mason was good. We are used them too, they have just spend two days packing us up ready to head to Melbourne and the two guys (Mick and Mark) were great. It is reassuring to know their agents in Australia are just as good. Xtonite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoJoB Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Am so glad to hear John Masons are great - we're moving in November and I've chosen them to do the job. I'm stressing though - what did you all do about the insurance? My cousin-in-law has been quoting all sorts of stats at me re how many containers get 'washed overboard' and I'm now terrified that we're under-insuring? Am I right in thinking that you have to 'choose' what items you want to insure and then work out the cost of replacing them in Australia? What a nightmare! Help!
