Packaging material

Hi Guys,

Need help with this, I have a whole heap of stuff to be sent back to Australia.

Sending is not an issue but packing the god damn things is an issue, and yes I thought to get the shipper to pack our items, well I know our regular guy is the no frills shipper.

He ships and mentions the cost to him and adds an premium and everything is transparent to us.

So the idea is to get someone to pack our items and i'll be happy on my way to my no frills shipping guy.

Can you help?

Hi notfromhere! I'm doing great, thanks. Glad to be home :)

Mojo, the company I used also seemed great. I mean, they were great apart from not putting those damn stickers on my items.

Fatcat with that sor of a thing you would be doing backflips in your sleep..thats awful mate.

But I did find another company which was quite professional and on punctual/courteous/price was also reasonable.

Mojo, I can't help but I can give you one tip. Make sure they stick fragile stickers on everything that cannot be dropped. I sent some items via air cargo a few days ago from Doha. I did request the guy to add the fragile sticker and he assured me it would be done. Long story short, my TV arrived at the BOTTOM of my fride, who was upside down, and so was my washing machine. And insurance doesn't cover electronic damage to used items, so please make sure those stickers are there.
