Moving Belongings From America,

[irishman]

I didn't find any relevant info here by doing a search so I thought I would appeal to the forum members. The question is: has anyone had any experience in using a freight forwarder or mover to get their stuff to Pattaya, Thailand? I have found a firm that will ship a 20 foot container for me from my front door to Bangkok for less than $2000 but I'm not sure what will happen then. Ideally, I would think that it would be better to go through Lam Chabang anyway but I just don't know. And I don't have any idea about customs and taxes.

Any advice, gentlemen?

Cheers

Have you taked to Rama?

We used the New York outfit to move from Boston to upcountry Thailand. Price was reasonable, nothing was damaged. I don't know if they'd get your stuff to Pattaya or not, but I'd be surprised if they didn't.
