Sylvia Posted July 28, 2005 at 12:47 AM Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 at 12:47 AM Hello all, I'm moving to Hangzhou this August and I need help in shipping my personal goods from San Francisco to Hangzhou. Do you know of any companies that pick up packed goods from our house that can deliver right to our home to be in Hangzhou? We have about 20-22 packed boxes to send. Any experiences/suggestions are highly valued! Thanks! Sylvia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twotree Posted July 28, 2005 at 01:37 AM Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 at 01:37 AM I usually use DHL for shipping small orders from China to here...western MA. It's relatively inexpensive (compared to FedEx or UPS), guaranteed delivery, trackable, and fast. Otherwise, I imigine you can rent a 20' container. I like Hanjin Shipping, the 3rd largest container company in the world and owned by Korean Air. They're very reputable. The cost is about $0.69 a pound, but it is very slow. A typical container can take up to 3 months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devi9 Posted July 29, 2005 at 06:47 PM Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 at 06:47 PM twotree: do you know if DHL has the same good rates for individuals? I know my company uses it to ship goods all over the world, but I thought it was more expensive for someone who doesn't have an account with DHL. They once almost charged me $100 for a four pound package. Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
