Standby shipping of my stuff from Thailand to Vietnam

Unfortunately it seems it will be quite expensive according to this thread titled "Moving household goods to Vietnam from BKK". In summary:
On April 10th, 2019 a person received a quote on 18-20 cubic meters of household goods from BKK to Da Nang for $7200 USD.
That quote didn’t even cover storage:

I just received a quote for 215K baht plus a 7% VAT for shipping 18-20 cubic meters of household goods from BKK to Da Nang. That is about $7200 USD just for shipping. Add in the Vietnamese duties for electronics(40%) and furniture (10%) and the potential cost for customs inspections and I would have to seriously think about moving anything. Too much paperwork and too many unknowns. If I was certain of the process and charges at the Vietnamese end it might be worth it but I need to do some more research. 28K baht solved the customs issue in Thailand so maybe a similar situation is available in Vietnam.

It seems to me that it is best for most people in Thailand to sell their stuff before moving throughout Asia.
