Recommended Posts

Hi Guy's 

We are moving our belongings back to the uk in November  !!

We live in Redcliffe North Brisbane 

We have one quote from $7700 for 30 cubic metres container 

And $10,740 for a 38 cubic metres & this is probably the size we need !!

This quotation was from a company called overseas packers & Shippers !!

We want one more quote so can anyone recommend another competitive company please  !!

Hi Lee, try KENT if you want another quote.

We move back to the UK next month, and our goods are being shipped back by OSS.

Based on our experience, both companies are good.

@AliQ   .........................  you really are a pingponger.  Not that long since you returned to Australia.

All the best with the move back to the UK next month.   😃

Hi Lee,

We got 3 quotes and chose the middle one as they seemed the most professional.  We moved (are moving) with Palmers.  Your quote for 30 foot is what we paid for  a part load of 26 cubic metres so I’d say that’s cheap but we were in Victoria so that might influence the price.  Our furniture was uploaded on March 15th and we were given an estimate of 10 - 16 weeks which suited us fine as we weren’t returning to the UK until May 1st.  However, the date has been put back several times.  The latest info is our container is due to leave on June 20th arriving on July 29th!  Our house sale goes through on June 29th so we shall be camping for at least a month.🥲

Good luck

Hi @AliQ, if you have anything you wish to sell rather than ship back then please PM me. We've bought in Caloundra and moved into yesterday!

Very sorry, nothing to sell. We included all our white goods in the sale of the property and everything else will be shipped.

Hope your move went well and hope you enjoy your new home 😊

Oh, we've plenty of white goods! Just thought you might have some odds and ends you'd rather sell than take back. All the best for the move back 🙂
