I've used GAC for personal effects DXB - KWI and later KWI-LGW.
Airfreight not a container. But can endorse them as a good outfit.

Gentlemen,
On the subject of containers...
For some reason, I was under the impression that the repatriation (end of contract) package included a container home for furniture (and the big provident fund cheque) but have been unable to find this in the staff manual.
Is this the case or not?

Unfortunately the container home has been reduced to a small box now, as a result of the the incredibly small provident fund cheque.

moving to DXB

I run a relocation biz and Pickford's is highly recommended by my clients. Also, you may try BritishExpatForum and you will see they come recommended there as well as a couple other companies I am not familiar with. Good luck
