    Heya,

    Has anyone sent anything by container to Australia yet? Or shared one?
    If so, what company did you use and how much did it cost?

    Thinking of sending some stuff back to my parents soon.

    You need to contact some freight forwarders as they will shop around for the best price for you and look after customs etc..

    You could go directly to a shipping line eg MSC, Maersk etc but being honest the forwarder will make it a lot easier for you although it may be more expensive.
