Shipping household items from USA
Hello everyone,
I will be relocating to Doha in a month or so, I need to ship my household items to Doha. If anyone knows about a reliable service (for shipping my goods by air) from USA to Doha , plz let me know the name and if possible contact information of that company.
Thanks in advance.
I have ordered a pair of speakers from
52" L x 24" W x 17" D 2 box
125 lbs each.
I need to look into reliable shipping...>Sea freight is prefered because the Air will suck me dry.
Can anyone guide me on this one. I need a door to door service.
Also looking for local Customs rules...here
Let me know

I will send you his cell number in PM. It should be in your inbox tomorrow. Tell him I refered you and I am sure that he has contacts up there. I will also send you mine just in case. I am also just shipping boxes about 500pounds and he says that they build a container just for the size of what you have. By the way what are moving to Qatar for? I see that you are a teacher. What grade/subject. You can send me a PM if you do not want to post.
Let me know if there is anything else I can help you with.

Thanks to all of you for your replies. I am definitely looking for some carrier from USA, so GAC Qatar might not suit me as Moonbeam has mentioned.
To TEX : I will be moving from West Virginia and the closest bigger city from here is Pittsburgh, PA. I don't know whether Northern American Moving company has office close to this area or not. I will try to contact Paul Noel by email. It will be great if you can send me his phone/cell no.
By they way, I don't have much to ship, maximum shipping weight would be between 200kg to 300kg.
Try North American Moving company. I do not know where you live but we are moving to Doha from Austin, TX and my contact here is Paul Noel. He can be contacted at [email protected]
He just left my house and is very honest and nice. He says that the company handles everything and the price is adjusted on final weight of contents. If you need some further information just say so. I have his cell # if you would like that.

GAC overcharge sadly. Raaid1, you are better off getting a quote from the US, where you will get much more competitive price. Air freight will cost you quite a bit. Just ensure that the company you use is a licensed handler (lots of scams around....) and that you have someone to do customs clearance and handling here in Doha (your company PR should help you set this up....and ensure you have a residence permit and papers from your company ready before your stuff lands).
Good Luck.
