Finding good moving company

[Roberthkt]

Hi,

After living here for 5 years, I decided to move back to the US. I'm looking for moving company and good storage too. I search on Google and find Big Move Phuket and USP services. Can anyone comment on these 2 companies? I'm looking to store around 6 months so looking for reliable company. 

 

Thank in advance for any comment.

I saw a report with photos on Facebook a few days ago, showing Bigmove filling a very large and modern truck with household goods, for a move to France. The shots of the packing process indoors showed wrapping and crating done in the same way as the best movers I've used in the UK and South Africa.

 

I'd certainly have Bigmove high on my shortlist for getting your stuff out of Phuket. I don't know anything about their freight forwarding expertise but they're worth looking at.

The best option would probably be to compare movers : http://www.thailandmovers.com/

Hi Robert,

We're looking to move back to the US at some point as well. 

I was wondering if you've gotten any quotes for the move. I'm trying to decide if I should do palletized freight (by the cubic meter), or just do a whole 20' container, but have no idea of the cost for shipping a 20' container. I remember that the cubic meter rate was fairly cheap a few years ago, but the cost of customs clearance and local delivery was more than the ocean freight.
