Part of my concern is door to door delivery, and I keep hearing that post office in Singapore is getting less and less reliable (not as bad as some other countries, but still). And I don't even know if they would re-deliver if the person is not available (my relative doesn't have a car). Also, there's quite a bit of stuff that going regular air method is going to be very expensive.beppi wrote:Post Office
Overseas mover would require me on the receiving end over there, at least the ones I contacted, which is understandable as their service is assuming that you are actually moving.Strong Eagle wrote:What volume of goods? Consider an overseas mover.
You should be able to specify someone to act as your agent. They want someone to sign off that the shipment has been received without loss or damage.pharmer_pk wrote:Overseas mover would require me on the receiving end over there, at least the ones I contacted, which is understandable as their service is assuming that you are actually moving.Strong Eagle wrote:What volume of goods?

I don't know, I find it strange that it's difficult in finding a service like this, and that various companies like DHL and TNT are not offering it to individuals anymore.
If you're not there when Singapore Post tries to deliver, the carrier leaves a note that says to go to a particular post office, where your items will be held 5 days and you have to go pick them up. They're not like UPS the way they'll try to redeliver, at least not in my experiences.pharmer_pk wrote:Part of my concern is door to door delivery, and I keep hearing that post office in Singapore is getting less and less reliable (not as bad as some other countries, but still).
