Shipping and Removals in Thailand
It is especially important, when shipping to Thailand, to use a credible shipping company and to buy insurance on the cargo. There are many eligible companies to ship from all corners of the world although shipping outside of Bangkok will often be more expensive. Moving to inland cities will require a combination of land and sea transport and island homes will usually need a series of boat transfers.
It is a good idea to buy insurance from a company other than the one used for transport to ensure reliable coverage. Goods are very cheap in Thailand and it is often cheaper to buy new furniture and amenities in Thailand than to ship them. Imported goods can also be taxed. Alternately, it is often worthwhile to ship these items back to a home country upon repatriation.
