G'day - it may have changed but the "excess" freight allowance above entitlement (180kg per adult, 90kg per child) was a mere HKD$2 per kilo when I moved recently.
Point to note: this excess is dependent on whether the goods are "weighted" only - if there are bulky (but light) items such as couches or bookshelves etc... then there is a "volume weight" calculation whereby your 100kg couch may actually be classed as a 200kg item because of its bulk. Clear as mud?!?
Sorry I can't help with more detail, I didn't bring any furniture over so I never investigated that aspect - I can say that I brought weighted goods well over my entitlement at the excess cost was a pittance. My advice is to drop an e-mail to the "Benefits Services Centre" at Cathay:

Hope this helps. Oh, and apparently I'm supposed to be infantile or unhelpful with my remarks so, er, here goes...
You smell like cat's wee and you are a poo-poo head.:}
