    Default shipping options from Italy? We have too few boxes for a shipping container

    Hi everyone,

    We are moving back to New Zealand from a major port city in Italy. I speak conversational Italian, but am finding it hard to find shipping options from here to New Zealand.

    We are currently looking at using the Italian post to ship about 20 boxes home to Wellington, but if anyone has any suggestions of companies or options we should look into, that would be awesome!

    Also if anyone knows of any Italian language forums related to immigrating in general or to New Zealand, do let me know.

    Thanks!

    Default Italian Post??

    Hi,
    have you checked prices with Italian Post? I think is going to be very, very expensive with the Italian Post.
    If you live by a major port city in Italy, I would suggest to go to the port and ask there about shipping.
    It should be cheaper than by post.
    I found those websites:

    Hope this helps!

    So helpful! I am based in Genova and not 100% sure about how to just go down the the port and ask about shipping, but probably exactly what I should do. I have long ago learned that in Italy it is best to just go in person and ask questions until you have a lead. My American ways of trying to do most of my research on the web doesn't work here.

    That said, those links look really helpful. And if anyone else has any experience or suggestions, please let me know.

    Thanks!!!
