Dear All,

I am not sure this is the place to post it but here goes:

I got my K1 Visa and I will be moving to America in December to join my lovely fiancé and get married.

I don't have a lot of furniture but I want to be sure to have my belongings when I start my new life: general life stuffs like clothes, books, objects…

What is the best way to get them to the United States (the safest and the most economical)?

Does anyone have experience with, or know of International Shipping Companies?

Any tips, recommendations, insights, will be greatly appreciated.

We had my wife's stuff sent from Poland regular mail; every week or two my step son would send a box or two, standard issue European post, wrapped in plastic per post direction. Shipped the cheapest, it would take a few weeks to make it here. Nothing ever got lost or broken. Might have been 25 boxes total, each 36x36x36cm. Since it's international post, there was a 'manifest'; customs never opened any to check. USPS postman delivered to our door, signature needed. By the time it was over, we were in first name basis with him.

Come ask your question to the French-American couples topic, I know some members moved their stuff using some companies recently. They can give you their feedback. :)
