Guest Missiemo Posted May 20, 2006 Hi Welcome to the site, do not want to put you off, but we are emigrating for good, so are paying for goods to be shipped,are finding it quite expansive I would say if you are only going for one year you may find it quite expansive, but you could try http://www.excessbaggage.co.uk, they do small loads for people going on a temp basis Good Luck and Welcome Missiemo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sydney is one area that I know has some good options: Try looking at http://www.fantasticfurniture.com.au/packages.asp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SAVTA 6 Posted May 21, 2006 Thank you so much for your suggestions - really appreciate it. HOWEVER, I was just concerned over whether I would be ALLOWED to ship goods into OZ - bearing in mind my visa. Obviously there are certain items that are sentimental and I may miss GOOD LUCK MISSIEMO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
