Guest aohall Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Hello Stupid question :goofy: - but when you go on an areoplane you get asked so many security questions - it is pretty hard to do anything you shouldn't - thank god. But if you are trusting a packing company to pack everything for you, for them to then take it to their depot and fill the container (our house does not have easy access for a 40ft container) - who is reasonsible if someone in the company is dodgy and no one knows till the container gets to Aus????? :frown: Told you it was a silly question !! Any thoughts???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boganbear Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 I think you have to sign a customs declaration that there are not things in it like explosives etc (I know that gas bottles for BBQs are) so you are responsible. There is also probably something in the contract between you and the removals as well indemnifying them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoandJon Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 There's a question on the form about who's packed your stuff - and you can say the company so that should be ok We were in the same boat as you - no way a container would have made it safely into and out of our village! And our stuff is currently off the coast of Fremantle on its way to Melbourne..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cal2 Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 having just had 4 different companies in for quotes on packing, they all said that you state on the form that the packing company did it, it's them their responsibility Cal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
