Last year I had an offer to study for nine months in Canada. It was a great opportunity but not that really well-paid and certainly not with any expenses paid. Once the initial excitement had worn off I came down to earth with a bump. Funnily enough at that time a relative had been working with Spratt Personal Shipping for a move to the Channel Islands from Dublin, but I didn’t take much notice because I knew I did not have enough stuff for a shipping container.
I was going from Dublin to Ottawa for nine months and I would need to bring quite a lot of stuff with me. Either that or buy it when I got there, and that was not an option. I had looked at how much it would cost me to check in the extra baggage that would be the stuff that I needed and immediately realised that because of the cost, excess baggage was not going to be an option, I could not believe how much it was, probably more than the value of the things I wanted to ship! I’ve been working with Spratt Personal Shipping for a move to the Channel Islands from Dublin, but I didn’t take much notice because I knew I did not have enough stuff for a shipping container.
I was feeling pretty gloomy about it and was not really sure what I was going to do, or how I was going to get the things I needed with me, to Canada. Then I bumped into another student at the university who had been on a similar trip to New Zealand and faced the same problems that I had with bringing what she needed with her without breaking the bank. And the name of Spratt Personal Shipping came up again! She told me that Spratt 
Personal Shipping, Dublin had shipped the items that she needed from Dublin to New Zealand for a fraction of the price of airline excess baggage charges. I was on the phone to them five minutes later. Well I am back now and I had a fantastic time that was made so much less expensive and stressful by Spratt Personal Shipping, Dublin and the excess baggage they allow. Thanks guys!
