So many questions as we pack....

9 years ago
In process of packing & going through things. Think I have read answers to some of the questions I am going to ask but at saturation point with all the information so please help with some more questions.

1) do people decorate their homes for Halloween or Christmas (outdoors &/or indoors) in UY? Trying to discern how many decorations to bring given very limited storage space.

2) please verify that any electrical item we are bringing must be 220 V or it will not work without converter to modify current. Guessing by the time you buy the appropriate powered converter, that this only makes sense for most higher dollar items versus less expensive items (standard coffee maker, hair dryers, etc.), correct?

3) saw something about oxygen absorbers being recommended as something to bring. How many of these might one need?

4) going to get cameras for property for security. Buy in UY or U.S. & if latter, 220 Volt?

5) our understanding is we can not bring any household or yard chemicals in container. Can we bring non-hazardous liquids in container (I.e. Laundry detergent,dish soap, shampoo, motor oil, etc.) in container?

Thank you!
