Door to Door cargo
High expat population in Kuwait means good business for door to door cargo service providers. There many companies that specializes in sending household items, furniture and largely electronic items such as LCD televisions to the home country of expats, mainly India, Srilanka and Phillipines.
The rates range from 500 fils to KD 1.50 depending upon whether the cargo is airborne or sea!
