Kev Rad Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 Hi All Does anybody know if you can buy the Dulux Paint Pod Paint in Perth? Just come back to the UK to pack up and can't remember seeing it. I was going to put some in the container but wasn't sure if you could bring paint. Any suggestions? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roadhouse Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 i no that when we got our quote we were not allowed any type of fluid items at all. ie nail varnish, paint, toys that may contain water (snow globes etc), creams or things like that. also when the guy from pss came to check our items he looked at hubbys tools and advised that he not take his hop up as it had dots of paint on. hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shona7 Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 Not sure about the paint pod thing but with regards to liquids we've packed things like creams in our container no problems. I can't see paint being that much of a problem just as long as it's sealed so it won't leak. We used a company called Pickfords. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arwen Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 I can't see paint being allowed. I know the paint tins in my garage have had a tendency to explode in the heat so it could be risk if this happened in a container. Plus some paints are flammable so again this is another risk a removal company may not want to take. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lou8670 Posted January 3, 2014 Report Share Posted January 3, 2014 I've been told you can't import paint in your container by 2 reputable shipping companies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siandsu Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 When you're ready to buy paint over here I've been told to buy from ikea. Their paint is made to eu standards which are more stringent than over here. Theres my 5 peneth anyhoo. hope it helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Druid Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Can't you just pour paint into the paint pod? After you have finished, wash it out? Plenty of dulux in Bunnings, if it's too thick, just add water, I wouldn't bring paint in my container, I too have seen tins explode in the heat, we used to store tins of paint in a container in Manchester, come a good hot day in summer, which is a rarity, some of them exploded, same here in perth, we stored tins of paint in a container and they went pop too, imagine all that mess in your container of household goods, another thought, bring some empty paint pod tins with you, so you can pour the local dulux paint into them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
