Advice on moving home

[lujanit]

I am moving back to Australia in the next month or so. I have a bit of a dilemma. I mainly have personal effects, e.g., clothes etc. However I also have a small amount of tools (drills x 2, electric saws (drop and crosscut), grinder plus the usual hand tools) and a small amount of kitchen stuff (electric mixer, crock pot, small oven, electric smoker etc). Also I have some framed prints etc. My guess is it together volume wise would be in the 3 to 4 cubic metre range and about 350 kilos in weight. As the electrical items are more than 12 months old I should not get hit with duty according to the Aus Customs site.

To replace the goods I estimate about 150k baht although three of the prints are limited edition and I have no idea of their value or if they can be replaced.

I am in no hurry for the goods to arrive; sea freight is okay. I am in Bangkok and the final address is in NSW.

So my questions are:

1. Is it worth the expense to send this stuff home or should I just get rid of it here? Any idea of what it would cost?

2. Any recommendations for a reliable company to move this stuff should I decide to send it home?
