Looking at shipping 2 x 20 kg suitcases of bits and pieces back home. We have a quote from Emirates freight but it isn't door to door. Any ideas of other companies and costs please.

Thanks all-Skynet Express were half the price of the next nearest quote-and the suitcases arrived in Australia in 3 days-and appeared to have not been examined or held up by customs either

Not sure if they are the cheapest, but this company was recommended to me some time ago when I was thinking of getting some things sent from Perth. http://www.packsend.com.au/ I also had this company in my favourites, but don't remember why!! http://www.skynetexpress.com.au/index.asp

Can't remember all the details - we had to take the baggage to somewhere in Deira, they said it would reach UK in a certain time (typically it took lots longer than they said!) but I can't remember if it was door to door or not! Sorry Wuffles

What about u-bag? Unaccompanied baggage - we sent some to Uk about 5 years ago, don't know if they are still in existence. Maybe try googling them?

It's my understanding Australian customs won't allow door to door. You have to physically claim it. Got any good friends returning from Europe any time soon?

If it is to the UK try http://www.excess-baggage.com/. They ship UK to UAE so might do the other way as well.
