    I want to send a chair from Dublin to Dubai. Box is 21kgs and 77cmx77cm. I've tried a few online places but they are charging hundreds. I'm in no rush I just want it over. Can anyone suggest where I may be able to get this shipped for a more reasonable cost? Thanks.

    Have you tried Parcel2go? It would probably help if you said who you have tried.
    You would also need the 3rd dimension, but a sea freight agent may be your best bet if you’re in no hurry. They can usually quote up to the arrival port.
