What can I say?
Abysmal, not cheap.....the full story is a long one and I don't have time here, but if anyone wants to email me....
London to Perth - asked for 20' sole container, got groupage = 5 week delay.
Wrongly advised me of arrival date = 4 weeks hotel bills in Perth
Use a "trading as" name then when you ask their real name (so you can sue) they refuse to give it - this is an offence under the Business Names Act 1985
Damaged approximately 1-3 of my goods as they did not repack them as instructed, nor was export wrapping (where it existed) adequate
Were supposed to unpack everything at destination - did not, only larger items.
The quote for about 850 cu. ft from London was GBP 3550 - not particularly cheap.
Try Excess International - I have used them in the past for smaller shipments and they have been good - never tried them for a container load. I did not use them this time because they were a bit unresponsive during the quoting process - I definitely made a mistake using the Removal Group.
Clearly they have no experience of shipments to Western Australia - they did even appoint a customs agent until 1 day AFTER my goods arrived, despite having three months to find one!
They offered me (only after two weeks of threats of legal action) 250 pounds compensation! my hotel bills alone were double this.
Once again - AVOID, AVOID, AVOID!
PS Note they do not belong to FIDI or BAR - not surprising!
