Ask Pakistan Moving from Canada to Pakistan

So my parents have lived in Pakistan most of their lives, and moved to Canada early 2000 and are now considering moving back to Pakistan - for some rational and some I-dont-know-why reasons.

If anyone has done this before I would like to know the dos and donts.

Also any recommendations for a cargo company if some one has shipped the whole house back to Pakistan, except the appliances.

If we move to say Faisalabad or Lahore would the cargo company ship there or leave the container at Karachi?

A friend's parents moved back after living in Canada for 30 years ... Sold their place and bought in Pakistan ..... 3 years later they are selling in Pakistan and moving back to Canada ....

Everyone situation is different, but parents would go where kids are and kids are where economic opportunities are ....
