Hi,

I need some stuff shipping back to the UK for my oldest lad - couple of small boxes. Anyone shipping a container back to the UK or know of anyone that is who might be prepared to help? Not sure what the customs/border control rules are for this sort of thing but am just throwing it out there on the assumption that this will be significantly more cost effective than actually freighting as individual items.

Cheers
