Were any items shipped refused entry?

Hi,

 

Just wondering before we pack the container - was there anything that you shipped that was refused entry or require further cleaning by customs? If so what costs were involved?

 

Thinking of leaving the garden furniture behind as there's a few cracks in the wood although still in great condition.

 

Any advice would be great!

 

Thank you!

Just make sure that if you have anything that could have grass, soil or any sort of plant matter on it, that it's thoroughly clean. I scrubbed my golf trolley to what I thought was an acceptable standard along with my golf shoes, yet they still pulled it out of the container and cleaned them even more.

we get packed in 12 days and are busy scrubbing everything in sight to make sure its clean enough for clearance ! Hubbys doing his golf things now and spent an hour scrubbing his balls !!!!:biggrin: but although he has really cleaned his clubs the grips still look a bit scuffed is it worth re gripping them just to be safe he decided that he will get a new trolley and bag as his was very well worn and so it went for sale

also I have loads of metal garden ornaments big birds steel suns mosaic bird baths etc I have blasted them with a power washer and intend to spraypaint the metal ones and regrout the mosaics this weekend will they allow these to enter or am I just wasting my time ?

Tools in boxes these too have been thoroughly cleaned but some due to wear and tear and old age look a bit rough but OH just cant bear to leave them behind is there any problems with clean but rusty looking he has had his tool boxes over 30yrs they are his old friends and he really wont give them up unless he really has too

Sorry for hijacking this thread but we getting stressed not knowing if our clean is their clean !!!!!
