Hi All,

We are moving to Sweden in 3 weeks. Can anyone please recommend how to get all our belongings over?

I have no idea where to even begin!

Are you the guy who had all the fun with the customs!?
Better not pack it in your suitcase so!!!

Try a google!
I posted stuff home from Singapore;& also from London; arrived in three huge crates 3 months later; cheapest option by far. Not sure about here thou outbound.

My flatmate emigrated ; there was a way they could buy a third, fourth & fifth (etc) suitcase on the flight; this worked out at e20 each; it was measured by the bag & not by the weight of the bag. She only found this out byreading the tiny print on the website. You had to pre order & pre purchase it.

Shipping companies/ ups etc otherwise

Good luck!

Hiya, you don't mention how much stuff you have,
Used work with a freight company, most of their business was people moving / returning home to foreign countries.
They charge by the kilo, and it would be a lot cheaper than posting in my experience. Posting a book to Norway cost me 11e!
Maybe call some freight companies & see what is the cheapest per Kg quote? Good luck!

I used UPS. They were the cheapest option (to Norway). €200 for 100kg.
