REMOVALS QUOTE: UK TO AUSTRALIA OR NZ
There are a number of shipping companies looking to do business with you. Moving your furniture, even your car overseas is not cheap so it's best to look around for a good quote and to feel happy about the company you're entrusting with your valuable possessions.
Obtaining advice from a shipping company MUST be a priority. Strict quarantine laws in Australia prevent certain articles from entering the country (such a feathered goods) and wood products may be subject to de-fumigation. Garden furniture and implements (including mowers) require special treatment and vehicles are also required to undergo strict cleansing routines. Having read this you may be thinking well, isn't it just better to sell up and start all over again? No, it isn't. Items sold on the second-hand market in the UK rarely fetch a sensible price, especially if they are sold just prior to leaving the country. Whilst you'd do well to boost the Australian economy by buying new on arrival, it is, in our humble opinion (take it from someone who has already gone through the process) much more affordable to bite the bullet and get items shipped than it it to start all over again, and anyway, somethings simply can not be replaced.
Obtain a quote for removals from at least three companies to give you a good idea of cost - see how easy that is below. This generally involves phoning around for an estimator to make an appointment to visit you in order to assess your goods, make decisions on the best packing processes (some items may need special crating), hi-lighing what can and what cannot be taken and informing you of any other special considerations like insurance, for example.
