Hi Dave
I went with "Purvers International" and its costing £1888.00.(they undercut "pickfords international" twice!!) So don"t accept the first quote you get! the size of consignment was 300 cub ft. But this price included them doing a full pack and wrap,and door to door delivery.(not curbside) There are shipping companies that just deliver to Alexandria,but none of the ones that i contacted had any experience of Egypt.So allthough that option was quite a bit cheaper,their lack of experience put me off!
All the shipping documents and arrival time at Alexandria will be posted to me within the next week.Its only been at sea for 4 days! But when i have all the documents i will be able to track the shipping movements.

Hope this helps
Karen
