When moving to Naples you are allowed a regualar shipment and an express shipment. Generally the express shipment arrives in Naples 4-6 weeks after it leaves the states. I have heard of express shipments arriving the same day as regular shipments, but this shouldn't dissuade you from taking advantage of an express shipment. The reasoning? First: it's rare. Second, if you are in TLA and you haven't found a house yet, or your housing process is taking a while it would be nice to have a few more of the comforts from home. It also comes in handy in the situation where you find a house and move in but your main shipment isn't here yet. Sure, the housing office will lend you stuff, but somethings are nicer to have if they're your own.
What to pack in an express shipment? Here are some ideas:
Card table & folding chairs
TV (if it's small enough...your movers will give you the weight/size limitations) and DVD's/Blue-Rays
Extra pet food
Pet beds
Plates, cups, bowls & utensitls
Baking dishes
Saucepan and frying pan
Cookie sheets
Can opener
Spatula/large spoons
Blankets
Sheets
Pillows
Extra clothes and shoes
Toys and books for children
Towels and wash cloths
Air Mattress (if you don't want to use a loaner bed)
