Can anyone please recommend a shipping agent to move from Thailand to the UK? Sea or air, time taken isn’t really an issue.

8 large boxes. One desk and a chair.

I’ve used Shiply for several international moves but not getting any quotes back this time.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking recommendations for shipping agents to move eight large boxes, a desk, and a chair from Thailand to the UK, noting that time isn't a major concern. One commenter suggested using Chiangmai Removals, while another advised considering buying a desk and chair in the UK instead, as bringing large items may incur taxes.

The owner is a personal friend and also owns a shop selling everything UK so he is always bringing in containers of stuff.

He moves a lot of people in and out of Thailand from Europe. He's British.

buy desk and chair here, bring other stuff in luggage - you will likely pay tax

Yes, Thailand to UK. It’s a lot of studio equipment and must be shipped.

No worries man! The same sit stand desk is like 3x the price in the UK. Studio stuff is quite niche and would be hard to sell in Thailand, unfortunately.
