"Great experience with the Bournes team from start to finish"
"They were professional throughout and our move was effortless. From initial assessment the team were responsive and very helpul with tips and information on the shipping process. The quote was competitive and I had confidence from their years of experience in moves to Australia.
The day of the move the team were simply excellent! They packed our 4-bed house worth of possesions very efficiently and securely. They were a very pleasant friendly bunch and we were amazed at how quickly they worked.
The move takes a few months due to the distance but we were kept up to date with shipping progress by our Move Manager Emily. When it came to the arrival in Sydney the local team were very helpful and careful with our boxes. Five stars! No damage or breakages! Despite being at sea so long!
I've nothing but good things to say about the whole process! We moved our whole family over and lots of our things and this was one aspect we never had anything to worry about.
