I'm going to be shipping some household goods to the U.S. in August but I don't have enough to fill a whole container -- a couple small tables, some suitcases and boxes. Anyone have a recommendation? I'm getting quotes from Crown and Emovers but I'd like to get a couple more.

Hi all! My husband and I are relocating to the West Coast, and we have already shipped our furniture from Singapore. We have a few boxes we would like to send from Dubai, mostly clothes/personal items - would any of you be willing to share a container? Seems to be quite a few who are looking to send less than a container full .. would be worth looking into!

My things are going to western Conn. Emovers and Crown have a 2 cubic meter minimum; Emovers quoted about 8000 for door-to-door service including packing and customs, and that's a lot more than I wanted to spend. Crown hasn't sent me the quote yet. Delight has a minimum of a 20-ft. container and DASA of 4 cubic meters. I don't know what to do -- I might call some airlines and look into sending it as unaccompanied freight. As I get more news I'll share.
