Hello, 

 

we will be in the process of moving all of our stuff back to the US in about 9-10 months. But, if it is anything like when we moved all our stuff up here to Canada we used a freight company. It was about $3500 CAD. It arrived about 2 weeks after we shipped it. It was dropped of at a customs warehouse near the airport here in Alberta. No damage. Nothing was missing. Personally, I think we will do this again. I’ve priced out a U-Haul truck and it’s about the same price, except for the cost of gas. 

Also, we were to have an itemized list of every single box and the items it contained when we arrived to pick it up.

 

Not sure it’ll be the same deal going to USA - hopefully. Good luck

I am wondering the same thing. Planing to move in February. I don't have too too much stuff.. maybe 4-5 boxes extra boxes in addition to a car load. Thinking to look into purolator or renting a trailer to attach to my car. I have heard train is good for a larger move...

I used chitchats. Waiting for the boxes to get there. I had only 3 big boxes. The rest I will take in the luggages. The best size is 16 by 16 by 18. Mine was bigger and paid more. But didnt have time to redo them.
