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.

Celebrating Chinese Dragon Boat Festival
发布者I am pretty sure last years article was incorrect. I contacted GoKunming at the time.
Celebrating Chinese Dragon Boat Festival
发布者From the article "...In Kunming, Dragon Boat Races used to be held during the holiday at the Yunnan Nationalities Village. " This seems unambiguous, but I think erroneous.
Celebrating Chinese Dragon Boat Festival
发布者I am not sure that dragon boat events were ever held in the Minorities Village. This could be a hang over from erroneous remark in an article on dragon boat festivals a year or two ago.
The only dragon boat events I know of, in the last 10 years, were held on the northern half of Haigeng Dam (Daba). These now fall on the calendar of the international dragon boat racing events.
A friendly reminder from the Kunming Public Security Bureau
发布者I guess Hainan might be a pilot scheme for licencing and taxing gambling and prostitution (speculation). If things are legalized, it can take them out of the hands of criminal enterprises.
