LONDON -

PRLog -- If you are moving across the Atlantic it is crucial you choose a reliable shipping company. So much can go wrong. Your goods could sit on London docks for weeks and you have no control. Your parent company may choose subcontractors who may decide to open your shipment and do their own inventory and renumber your boxes and then what a mix up.
These are the areas vital to pay attention to - clear reporting on how things have been packaged and a detailed inventory. Assurance as to taping of your boxes. But most important if you are shipping to a third world country that your parent company tells you when goods have arrived at port.
I recently used an English firm when I had my clothes and personal possessions packed and shipped from London. I am truly hoping my choice was right. I have heard such horror stories from friends. How I have watched them cry and moan when they see prized possessions shattered into tiny pieces. And sometimes shipping companies even forget to send things! Can you imagine - your precious possessions sitting still in their warehouse. But I know my choice must be right because ants always carry their crumbs on their backs safely home.
