Need to ship a couple 30 / 40KG boxes of belongings to Singapore from the UK... not furniture, just additional clothing, books etc...
Not too fussed by the means, although if air is extortionate, then I can wait 2 months for the boat to get it done...
Anybody had any experience or quotes?
An old GF recently had two 30 - 40KG boxes shipped to Malaysia from a company called Shipping to Malaysia... and it was super cheap... £34 per box by sea... but I think they only offer shipping to Malaysia...

One word of advice. List everything down on the paper for customs. I had an on-going row with Fedex, who were the main transporters, that my computer was liable for GST and therefore they tried to ram a charge down my throat.
