Guest mandisfam Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Hi Claire, I have heard that it can take longer to get to you, if they drop the other persons stuff off first....but dont know about anything else. Be interested in reading the answers to this, because I dont think we will fill a whole container ourselves. Do you know when you are going yet????

Guest AndyandYvonneD Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Hi Guys We shared a container.......we had half of one. We used John Masons from the UK side and they came round and quoted us for the space we were using ONLY. Think we paid around 2,000 pounds for 500cft. They were fantastic and ours was not held up in anyway. Arrived to us over here exactly when they said it would. Hope this helps you a little.

Guest mandisfam Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 no not yet, still trying to sell the blasted house Claire x Know the feeling.....so frustrating.....Im finding you tell people you are going to oz, then they say when, then you say depends on when the house sells....then you get the rolling eyes look, that they dont believe you....

Elliott-Family Posted July 28, 2009 Author Share Posted July 28, 2009 i know... all i get everyday is 'have you sold your house yet'? driving me nuts lol Claire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calNgary Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 we have sent 2 separate shipments both in shared containers and had no issues what so ever. We used Crown Relo both times and the stuff arrived on the day they said it would . I think stuff going missing can happen regardless of if you share a container or not , as only the removal men or customs have access to your belongings.
