Penny C Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 After a short trip back to the UK things have taken a massive turn and I am now remaining here on my own to help and assist my elderly parents. I need to get mainly clothing and a few personal items shipped over (no furniture or large items will be coming over). Can anyone recommend options and ways to best tackle this. Many thanks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quoll Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 (edited) Welcome to the club, we did the same back in 2011 and, for us, it was 9 years!!!! As to moving stuff, I can't say enough good things about Move Cube. They come in different sizes and we found them really easy to deal with. We got ours when we returned to Australia but you can get them in the reverse direction. It'd be easier than sending a few odd things which is what we did when we stayed in UK - for us that was a real pain because it was such a small shipment we were at the bottom of their priority list. As it happens, much of the stuff we sent over never got used anyway! I assume you have someone here who can do the packing and sending for you. I also assume you have citizenship which makes variable time frames a while lot easier to manage. Good luck!!!!!!!

Marisawright Posted May 3, 2023 Share Posted May 3, 2023 (edited) I second the Movecube. We have also used Seven Seas (the company who offers the Movecube) to send individual boxes and been happy with the service. Note you have to use their boxes.

calNgary Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 Not sure if Crown Relocations are still going as its a few years since i last shipped stuff, but i have used them twice to ship a few boxes and had no issues either time. Cal x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InnerVoice Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 Ditto Seven Seas. I've used them a couple of times and it's been a good experience. Never had a MoveCube, but you can get tonnes in them by all accounts. https://www.sevenseasworldwide.com/en-au/moving/movecube/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
