Our Shipping Relocation Service Comprise Of Four Main Areas:

FCL – Full Container Loads: ideals for customers looking to ship the entire contents of their property. Container size (e.g. 20, 40, 45 ft) is dependent on the volume of shipment and the size of your property (a 3-bedroom house is roughly equivalent to 20ft shipping container).

LCL – Less Than a Container Load: essentially a priority service, generally transit time is dependent on chosen destination - popular with private and business customers looking to relocate small amounts, where the emphasis is on speed over price. We’ll pack your effects into a lift-van case that offers the same time frames as customers who have their own exclusive container. Our LCL shipping service is also suitable for customers looking to ship high-risk items, where minimal handling is required.

Groupage service – a consolidation service for customers needing to ship small amounts of effects in consolidation with other consignees. Emphasis here is on price over speed. Approximate door-to-door time takes up to 12 weeks. Ideal for customers looking to ship anything from one box, to part of the contents of their property.

Air-freight – used by customers looking to send out very small amount of personal effects, usually in advance of their sea-freight container. Approximate transit time is 7-10 days.
