Hi All,I am looking to ship my furniture and other household items from Singapore to Bali.Everything is currently in storage with another Singapore-based removals company.They have provided what seems a very high quote of USD$3,800 because they need to ship via Surabaya and then on-freight from there.Is this correct? Is there another way, can you ship directly to Bali?Can anyone give me any advice please? Many thanks, much appreciated.Mark

I believe all container transport comes into Bali or goes out via Surabaya that what you have been quoted does seem heavy as you can ship a container back to uk for about the same price. I would suggest you get some more quotes try using just a freight company instead of a removals company.

Thank you very much, Model 1826.Do you know of any trustworthy freight companies either in Bali or Singapore?I believe all container transport comes into Bali or goes out via Surabaya that what you have been quoted does seem heavy as you can ship a container back to uk for about the same price.

Gotta say there's a huge difference in shipping something TO the UK and TO Bali. Unless you have a work Kitas there's duty to pay and that's like the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy Improbability Drive - based on no sensible or rational guideline.
