hello

we are not bringing anything other than clothes to NZ, so we dont need a container, however we may struggle with just our baggage allowance so are considering shipping a large bag/box with clothes,shoes etc in it. We have looked on shipping sites but we dont know the cubic measurements of the bag/box yet or the weight. Has anyone else done something similar and can give us a rough estimate of shipping a suitcase sized bag?

thanks

Hey guys, could you mention again where you are from? It could help with the advice!

...and ask AirNZ about air cargo discount for immigrants.

heres another link - we used Cargo bookers to ship over our stuff from the UK - since you haven't put where you live it may or may not be any use.

I suggest that you at least put your Country in your location if nothing else so people can give the correct advise

thanks for the links and advice...... we have edited our profile so this should make things simpler! :o

We booked our flights yesterday and are both regularly feeling elated and then sick in waves at the moment, realising just how much there is to do before the 1st October when we fly (and we have been planning this for 4 years now:roll )
