Guest Guest6235 Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Has anybody moved their belongings doing the groupage shipping. We were all sorted to do it this way but just called Crown and they've now mentioned that once the items are taken from our property then they go into their warehouse and they wait for other bookings to fill the container. This means our gear may not ship for 6-8 weeks etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kibanje Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 We have gone with groupage as we didn't have enough stuff to fill a whole container and the price difference was fairly large. We have gone with doree bonner and are currently waiting for our stuff to be sent over. They came to collect it 2 weeks ago and they said they would give me an update as to where it was in 4 weeks (so 2 more to go). We are resigned to the fact it could take 3 months to get here but are hoping it will be a lot shorter. Sorry can't be more helpful though the packers did say there is always something being sent to Perth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest6235 Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Ok cheers. Similar to us with not enough stuff to fill 20ft but have asked if they can bring 20ft price down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
<Dan> Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 I think if its a split container / Grouped, they also take longer to go through customs / AQIS. But I maybe wrong but im sure one of the companies did tell me this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
