HI!
I cover the arrival of our shipping container in today's video and share what we learnt through the process - hopefully this video can help you make the right decision for your own shipping arrangements if you are moving to Australia.
Please follow me on Instagram: @cath_botha - a few exciting weekend adventures and lots of photos of us exploring Perth.
I would love for this RU-vid channel to grow a community of people who are making the move to Perth WA, so that we can all learn from each others' experiences and lessons - and hopefully build a resource for those who might make the move in the future!
Good luck on your own journey and adventure - I would love if you could subscribe to my channel and follow our journey for more hints/hacks/adventures as new Expats in Australia!
Catch you in the next one!
Love Cath

May I ask how much it cost to ship your 40 foot container of home goods?

@glennsteer214 2 года назад

Shame about the delay in transporting the container. Freezer still works means the gas is still ok, so in my view, it won't take much to repair it. Siemens might be expensive though. Modern new furnishings are generally not great quality (stuff from Indonesia, Thailand etc) worth looking for good second hand products via gumtree etc. We bought solid pine furniture (made in Australia) and had it stained to look like local hardwoods. Hope your family is feeling more comfortable.

Aah thanks Glenn! Yes we are hoping to do a minor repair to the fridge and sell it- great idea with staining pine furniture - totally agree with modern new furnishings quality 😅 we are feeling sooo much more at home now.

I like your vlog style videos!

Thanks so much! I will definitely be doing more of these. Unfortunately I am home in South Africa for a few weeks as my father has passed away. New video will be up first week of September.

@@cathybotha I am so sorry to hear that! My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Does Dubai have the same type of plug sockets as Australia? That's one thing to think. About when taking appliances from other country's

@cathybotha 2 года назад

Good Point C M!! We invested in some Aussie plugs from Bunnings and changed the UAE plugs on our appliances when they arrived. Easy to do - but Budget anything from $50-$100 depending on how many appliances you bring.

Do you have to fill out a detailed list of everything being shipped? Eg 8x folks 8x dinner knives, 1x cutlery tidy or just assorted cutlery ? Were planning on shipping a container full of cloths/ps4 & vr and games and mechanics tools ect we rented a storage container and just boxed it all and put in Halfords containers but will we need to pull it all out to list it all ?

@cathybotha Год назад

Yes- as detailed as possible.... this will reduce risk of delays at customs!!

@jakecobet1777 Год назад

@@cathybotha i have over 1000 different sockets and spanner’s can i put assorted tools or list assorted spanner’s or list individually amount and size 13mm 14mm ect ?

@cathybotha Год назад

@Jake cobet oh my- I'm sure you could group those types of items!! Would be really difficult to detail to that degree. Good luck!!

Hi Kate! We are absolutely loving Perth. It is a city with a small town feel and we love the outdoor lifestyle it offers us- even in the winter months!! Cannot wait for Summer to arrive and spend more time at the beach. Good luck with your own plans and journey!
