Mr. Liu spent half his life working hard in Kunshan, Suzhou. Years earlier, he sent his son to Japan to pursue a PhD. Now his son has built a successful career in Yokohama and is ready to bring Mr. Liu over to enjoy a relaxed retirement. But Mr. Liu was reluctant to part with a set of solid wood furniture in good condition at home, so after discussing it with his son, he decided to bring the furniture to Japan as well.

Mr. Liu looked into many shipping companies and nearly fell into a trap set by one of them! To save money, he first inquired with several consolidator companies advertising low prices, but they actually charged by weight—and solid wood furniture is very heavy—so the final ocean freight quote turned out to be astronomical for Mr. Liu! Later, he found Seapoe Relo, which charges by volume. Not only does it provide full, costly door-to-door delivery service even in Japan, but the final price was actually lower—maximum value for money!

When the packing team arrived, the first thing they saw was a pair of solid wood single sofas. The movers first removed the back panels, then wrapped the back panels and sofas separately in pearl cotton, and reinforced everything together with cardboard—saving at least 0.5m³ of space. Next was the solid wood TV cabinet: after wrapping it tightly all over with pearl cotton, they cut cardboard to custom-build an outer shell shaped to the furniture, greatly saving volume. Finally, the solid wood display cabinet—because it had glass inlaid, the movers were especially meticulous, wrapping it in several layers of pearl cotton and then encasing it snugly in cardboard. After all the furniture was packed, the originally estimated 8m³ came to only 8.5m³ including outer packaging—Mr. Liu was very pleased!

A month or so later, Mr. Liu received his beloved complete set of furniture at his son's home in Yokohama. Looking at the intact furniture arranged in the house, Mr. Liu said, "With Seapoe, I have complete peace of mind!"
