According to work, I am being relocated to Singapore in January for 12-18 months. Now Im not complaining, but Im unsure what to do with all my things.
They have given me 3 cubic metres of seafreight to send over there. It takes roughly 6 weeks.
Shall I ship my TV, PS3, PC, etc out there and wait 6 weeks, or do I sell it now and use the money to buy new stuff when I am out there? 3 cubic metres isnt huge so I would rather use it to take the furnishings I have here, than spend it on new stuff out there.
Does anyone know how much electronics are out there?
 
The plan is, to take my laptop as hand luggage, and most of my clothes as cargo. Work will pay for a certain amount of excess. I get put up in a hotel for the 1st 30 days, as we are given free reign to find our own accomodation as long as its within our accomodation allowance.

Apparently a lot of rental appartments in SG are non furnished.

lol, cheers, looks like Ikea it is!
I think youre right alex, I doubt I will fit that much in my seafreight. I think they give me more space on the return trip.

I work for an oil and gas engineering company. Project based work, current client is Shell, who are building a MEG complex in Singapore. I will be working out there as part of the procurement/materials management team.
 
I think Im going to sell my TV (shame, cos I only got it in April, but should get some decent money back for it), my PC, my PS3, my mountain bike, and my car (sob :(). Im going to buy all new tech stuff out there, except for my phone and my laptop.
