I am moving countries and would really appreciate some advice.

I have fully furnished the apartment I’m currently renting cause I lived here for a long time, instead of having to sell each piece, is it possible that the next tenant can buy everything off me (as they’ll need furniture/ utensils etc any way). I don’t rent from an individual owner, it’s a rental building.

Secondly, I still have quite a few things I want to move, how can I move my stuff for cheap to the UK

Some people may buy furniture from you or the second tenant maybe interested. Additionally you can also hold mini garage sale and post it in your building bulletin board

Maybe you can sell your furniture to the rental building.

This is a tough predicament. The easiest way to get your things to UK would be paying for it to be on the plane by paying for multiple checked items. Good luck on your move!

Usually people have their larger items like pieces of furniture cargoed through shipping containers. Unless you have priceless items, I personally don't recommend doing it

What type of stuff are you planning to get cargoed to the UK? If those are large stuff I doubt you'd get cheap deals for it. Anyway, I think you can definitely "sell" your unit semi-furnished. But you would still have it sold at secondhand price or even less as it would vamp up the price of the entire unit.

Mostly clothing items (shoes, coats), some small sentimental items (but a lot of them)… nothing chunky tbh. I don’t think I want to take any furniture, prolly not worth it

Sell your furniture on FB marketplace and other places. Also agree that there laods of cargo options (e.g., container shipping) that might be worth looking into?

Thank you for you reply. Can you recommend a few I can look into

Its possible they will, and they might not. It never hurts to try though.

Since I've left, I feel financially secure but listless and bored with a lame team on what I've discovered is a skeezy upsell.

Toronto banks: remote or not? They sometimes post jobs where it doesn’t say it’s remote, but no branch/ location/address either. Then you get an interview and they tell you it’s remote/hybrid(1-2-3days, take your pick)/on-site. So, if you work at TD, Scotia, RBC, could you let everybody know in the comments what’s the deal for each? Are you remote, on-site, hybrid of some sort?
