Personally, I would not use a freight forwarder. I would use a removal/relocation company.

Two more points to note.
One, they will expect you to haggle, also shop around, to get a feel for prices, and make note of the materials used as it affects price.
Two, buy your self a cheap set of step ladders, you can get them at any big supermarket and sometimes there is a neighborhood hardware store that has them. The reason is that most trades people, even those who need ladders, don't bring them. They are always useful as most places here have 3m ceilings.
They usually do, and they will also deliver and hang them for you.
As Lemon lover says, there are lots of companies doing this, mostly small family businesses, but some are larger. You should have no problems finding people local to where you are going to live. The larger businesses have many sample sets already made and hung in the showrooms, which is better than trying to choose from a sample/pattern book.
Usually when they quote, this is for the made item. This usually comes with tiebacks. Some curtains are 3 layers, including nets, which often come as part of the set. These places also fit curtain rails, which start at a very low price.
Be aware that all the curtain places we visited only do full drop curtains as that is the width of material they use, such is the market. We got some shorter curtains made, but had to pay for the full drop. We could not get two drops as even the short windows here are 1.5m.
Mae culpa. I glibly (not pompously) used the term IP, without foreseeing overreaction from some quarters. How about if I had said, 'the results of my efforts in my own time, for which I wasn't paid'?
No results found.
Great to know it is no longer dry.
Good review BTW
This has moved.
The cut flowers are about 700m east on Duonan Jie. The plants and trees are about 700 m west and follow Duocai Section.
A reasonable choice of lumber that has improved over time. Fancy hardwoods like walnut, and mahogany are in abundance. There are some plywood and rubber-wood boards available. There are also some kiln dried imported softwoods and merbao available. Some of the lumber is very green, so look for the kiln dried if you need stable timbers.
Echo everything said by others.
Breakfast great and the serve from 8am. Most other places say 9am and they still are not ready.
Sandwiches are cheap 22-32, and really packed full of filling. We got some sandwiches for a day out, the only mistake I made was ordering two, as this was too much. These are seriously good sangars, and they are wrapped in alu foil.
In fairness to Metro, they are a wholesalers, and not really a supermarket. Hence the need for a card, which can be got around.
They have improved in the year I have been away. They now carry a more consistent range of imported foodstuffs and they also seem to have sorted out the mported milk supply.
They have a wider range of electrical appliances now, there is a coice of more than one toast. There is also a better range of seasonal non foods, like clothes, shoes, garden furniture and camping gear.
Scientists "99 percent" certain SARS originated in Yunnan bats
发布者@satirical... The person who needs to read it will probably either ignore it, or not recognize themselves.
Summiting Yunnan's majestic Haba Snow Mountain
发布者Sounds like a great trip, and some very sound advice. For anyone who has not climbed or hiked at altitude before, you need to be fit to cope with heights over 4500m, and the air seems to thin exponentially above that.
Op-ed: Officials spoiling cities they should be improving
发布者In some streets trees definitely limit pedestrians, sometimes pushing them to walk in traffic..Remember, just because you have not seen it, that does not make the messenger wrong.
Scientists "99 percent" certain SARS originated in Yunnan bats
发布者Scientists probably have different ideas about how the virus may have been transmitted and transferred between species. Some may be fairly certain., but the cannot say with absolute certainty, and so they say that they do not know.
Why do they say this? Because even if they are '99 percent certain'some idiots will shout "FAKE NEWS, FAKE NEWS'.
Op-ed: Officials spoiling cities they should be improving
发布者I live near Haigeng Park. I love the way that there is a new section of Hubin Lu that is not safe for pedestrians, and another part that is not safe for cyclists. They have now banned cycles from a section of, what was, cycle path along the side of DianChi lake.
Another example of lack of continuity. There is a huge spend to upgrade Cuihu (Green Lake) area. It would be nice if they finish the long overdue subway first. Hopefull Cuihu will be finished before we have another change of Mayor, who will focus on HIS projects as the priority.
