Shipping from UK (London) to Toronto

« on: January 30, 2012, 10:48:40 am »

Hi, can anyone give me a rough idea of how much I can expect to fork out for shipping maybe 3 pallets of boxes to Toronto. Most of the online quote calculators ask you to compile quite a detailed list to give you a quote, and I just don't know what's going or not just yet. It would be helpful to know what the approximate cost of about or 3 or 4 cubic metres might be....

Anyone recently shipped this sort of volume that can shed some light for me?

Hi there awilliams,

We have gone with excessbaggage.com as we are not shipping any furniture, they provide free packaging material and have been the most competitive.

Hi Mhut, thanks for the tip. I've actually requested a quote from them. We are not shipping furniture either, it will be just lots of boxes of our personal effects. Approx what was the volume of the goods you shipped and what cost? I'm trying to budget for out move, having just come off maternity leave, every penny counts!!! So a real figure would be helpful.
