I have a friend that is planning on moving to Australia soon from the U.S. and he needs to know who the good, reliable and fair-priced movers are. He won't have a lot of things to move, but he still needs some things shipped there. I don't know which city he is moving too, but I could find out. He plans on moving in October (I think). Thanks!

It costs a small fortune to move sadly!
When I moved I used Mayflower which I found to be a big mistake - they overcharged me by a lot, and once my stuff got here the recieving company (Nuss removals based in Sydney) said they would have shipped the same container by volume, not weight, saving me a couple thousand dollars.
Get all the quotes he can before hand, and sell as much as is feasable before moving. Much cheaper to sell furniture etc at a loss or give it away than spend $5 a pound or so to ship it.
ANd good luck to him - hope he loves it here!

Hi I brought a 20' shipping container and stored all my gear in it and packing it myself reselling the container on ebay latter and used 5 star shipping.I found their all about the same price really see link.Most people don't take anything to start with selling[yard sales] before they leave if staying permanently due to the high cost of shipping and purchase new stuff is off set with the selling before leaving.

it would be better to find someone in the US to ship his stuff
