vickersvc10 Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 In the not-too-distant future I will be returning to the UK for good after many years in Pattaya. Does anyone know of a good firm which could pack and ship about 400 kilos of my stuff back to England? There is a firm on Sukhumvit between South and Central Roads, but they did not impress me.

Pattaya28 Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 Will be a lottery which company does least damage, let alone if you ever see your stuff again. Good luck though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NanLaew Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 (edited) A way of defraying the costs of relocation is to carefully sort what you plan on exporting back to the UK into: A - what can be taken as excess baggage. B - what can be sent as unaccompanied baggage. C - what can only be sent via a freight forwarder. With regard to A, if you have elevated status with an air carrier, you may qualify for a higher free baggage allowance or benefit from a lower-cost (or free) Business or First class ticket with the attendant higher free baggage allowances. Do a google search to see what services are available ex- Bangkok for B. Much cheaper than standard airline excess baggage charges. C is reserved for heavy items, appliances, white goods, etc. Reconsider what you REALLY need to take back to UK. There are auction houses that will buy (most) of your unwanted stuff if it is in good condition. Edited November 2, 2015 by NanLaew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
