What should I pack when moving to Hong Kong?

Answer this Question

We asked people living in Hong Kong to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...

"We had friends living here who advised us well on what to bring. We did bring way too much furniture though. HK apartments are generally smaller than apartments/houses in the USA and you won't need as much furniture. Plus, it's fun to have furniture custom-made here, so you will want to be able to have room for that! DO bring your beds and bed linens, though. Leave all of your appliances in the USA - you'll need a transformer to work them and it's not worth it," remarked another expat in Hong Kong, Hong Kong.

"We actually brought our suitcases and rented furniture. It was easy, everything was new, and we even got to select fabrics and colors and sizes. Better, we were able to rent curtains (homes do not have them), televisions, and light fixtures (another bizarre element). There are 2 companies that rent - Indigo and Home Essentials. We chose Home Essentials as they were more flexible and lower priced for the same stuff," said a member in Hong Kong.
