    Hello there.

    Me and my significant other is moving to Czech Republic and need a company to send our furniture and clothes there. Can anyone please suggest a company that doesn't cost a few hundred euros?

    Kind Regards,
    Cecilie Rasmussen

    I doubt such a company exists

    Most likely not, but at least the cheapest one then..

    We have some clothes and small appliances, its not big things.

    Often the cheapest way is to go with a large haulage company who deal with shipping pallets. If you can fit your goods on 1 pallet and don't mind waiting a few weeks for delivery.

    You could also try the likes of shiply.com and may have some luck.

    I have a transport business but my service would be based on a dedicated load service, customer appointed collection and delivery times and direct delivery (next day to Czech Republic is possible). However the cost would be far higher than what you could find with a larger, part load company so it depends on the service you're after.

    Good luck finding something but you shouldn't be expecting to not have to pay a few hundred Euro :)

    Eh ... Furniture ? ..

    I think your looking in the over 500 euro area.
    Would it not me easier just to sell/dump what you don't need and buy it there?
