How to compare shipping companies
- Does the price include packing, loading, clearance and door delivery?
- Where exactly does the price end — door or warehouse?
- Will you give me an itemised quote?
- What is the lifting fee if there is no lift?
- Is there insurance, and on what value?
The full list is in questions to ask a shipping company before you pay, and how to read a quote in how to read a shipping quote.
Common costly mistakes
- Choosing the cheapest without comparing what the price covers.
- A vague packing list means the shipment is opened at the border.
- A forgotten restricted item in a storeroom box.
- No coordination with the destination building management.
- Signing before checking — all the mistakes are in common international shipping mistakes.
