<200cf move from US

15 years ago
I will be moving to Zurich from Las Vegas in less than a month and am about to finalize relocation agreements with a moving agent.

I was wondering if anyone knew of a cost effective way of moving less than 200 cf (cubic feet) of goods as that is the mover's minimum load.

I have no problem paying the mover as their rates are very reasonable, but if I could move less and pay less I wouldn't mind doing so.

I've looked at things like the USPS 11lb M bag and UPS packages, but I've found it tough to navigate that jungle. I've not even attempted to try less than container shippers.

As an aside: I'm coming back from the US and have a lot more goods than when I came over. Everything fit into two suitcases then, hence my need for advice now.

Thanks in advance!
