Shipping to Qatar

Can anybody recommend a good company to ship my personal belongings to Doha from the United States? I estimate about 2 tonnes of items and I prefer to have the company pack most of the items.
How long does it take? About how much should it cost?
Thanks

Thanks for your replies. My company is paying for the move, but the office is small so the details are up to me. But I am required to give them three quotes so I will try the suggestions given.

Hi there, I don't know if this will help you, but you can give them a try. SIRVA Global Relocation www.sirva.com

1-888-444-4765.

The company my husband works with uses SIRVA. SIRVA then contacts a local moving/storage company. In our situation, it was Westheimer Allied Moving and Storage. It took 8 weeks for our boxes to get here, but that was also during Ramadan. That slowed things down immensely. I guess your company did not offer to store/ship your goods.

I would definitely find out if the business your working for offers any of these types of arrangements.

As far as the price, I'm not sure because the company paid for the storage and the shipping. Hope this helps. Good luck.
