Hello, I will be returning to the UK permanently on August 1st 2021, and have been trying to find an international shipping company. The prices quoted are so different, and one shipper tells me I need a whole container, whilst the other shippers tell me I could share a container as I am not shipping a whole house. Any thoughts and experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
