Default Shipping Containers?
Does anyone know how much it is to rent out shipping containers to get your valuables over from home??
I need to ship over some stuff from UK when going to dubai, ive had a quote of something like 2000 - 3000, problem is you have to pack it yourself!!!
Has anyone ever done this??

Regards
