Advice on transporting luggage from Verona to Uk

Hi All,

My little Italian venture failed rather dramatically.

I lost nearly everything and am having to start again in the UK - Scotland

I am already in the UK

I still have luggage that I need to get from Verona to Scotland - roughly 2 Cases worth around 30kg but I am having trouble coming up with an affordable way to do it.

I have been quoted £400 but wont be able to afford that for a while if I save hard and there is a limit to how long my things can be stored (also I need more clothes lol)

It is purely clothes shoes few books etc

I was wondering if anyone may have had a similar experience or could offer me any tips or advice / knew of any ways this could be done affordably

Oh supposedly the shipping companies have a problem with payments being made from the destination country which makes it a little harder still but I could send money to the person storing for me.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Jambo
