We shipped ours in our container when we came in 2002, then registered them at the police station in Hilo. We really wish now we had never brought them as no matter what we do they rust. We would have been better off selling them or giving them to relatives. If yours are something that are really sentimental, you may wish to leave them in storage on the mainland. Others we have met since moving here have gone ahead and had to ship there's back to the mainland at great expense so that they would quit rusting.
