Shipping-Dublin to Perth

[GaryandGillDublin]

Hi all,

 

We've 6 weeks to the day til we go and are just trying to organise shipping etc. :wacko:

 

We had originally settled on a company and they quoted us a very reasonable price but when they can out to our house last week and took an inventory the price has literally doubled and nothing has been added to the list I originally gave in February :mad:

 

So just trying to look around and see if I can get something cheaper as we have to watch every penny.

 

If anyone could give us some help on this we'd be delighted :wubclub:

 

Thanks a million,

 

Gary & Gill

Hi Gary & Gill,

 

My advise would be to always to obtain several shipping company quotations firstly. You then have ammunition to play one off against the other (in many cases) price wise.

I would contact the following

 

Careline,

Crown,

Allied Pickford

Beverley Smyth http://www.beverlysmyth.ie/

Nat Ross http://www.shipping-international.com/companies/nat-ross.html

 

You could also ensure that you obtain a fully all inclusive price of agents and customs & quarantine.

 

Good luck

NB Although I have not personally used them some of our members have self insured with companies like Letton Percival http://www.lettonpercival.co.uk/ which works out substantially cheaper than shipping company's insurers.
