Moving Transport To Chiang Mai?

[ultspnch]

Hi! I am trying to move to Chiang Mai after 8 months in Bangkok. I have accumulated a fair amount of stuff, TV, bookcases, clothes, kitchen stuff, etc. I also have a small motorcycle. I think all this stuff would fit in the bed of a small pickup, maybe one with a 'cage' on top.

Does anyone know how I might arrange that, and how much I would expect to pay for the trip? I would like to just find a private owner that would be prepared to take me and my stuff up to Chiang Mai and return on his own, if that is possible.

I have also been told that it is possible to take a mtorcycle up on the train, has anyone taken a motorcycle AND many boxes as 'accompanied baggage' at a reasonable extra fee?

Any ideas most appreciated.

Aisan Tigers would be my suggestion. Very professional. <http://www.asiantigersgroup.com/frontpage.htm>

I might suggest that you speak to one of the taxi drivers that hang around places like Nana Plaza during the day time.

These guys would surely know someone with a pick up.

I would make sure to travel up (to Chiangmai) in the pick up with the load yourself "to make sure that nothing falls off" so to speak.

I ship stuff to Chiang Mai all the time in cartons and the best deal I have found is Schenker Shipping Company. The bad news is that to get the best rate, you have to bring the stuff to their warehouse in Bangkok yourself.

I do everything through Chiang Mai, so have no info in Bangkok.

Try contacting Miss Noppakao Dee-Inn (Customer Service Supervisor) in Chiang Mai at 053 904 672-80.

She is brilliant, speaks great English and can be quite easy on the eyes!
