Flexible Air and Sea Freight Options

Choosing air or sea shipping depends on your budget, the size of your goods and when you need them. Here is what to consider before booking.

When do you need your goods?

Air freight is usually the quicker option. Sea freight takes longer but may suit larger shipments that are not urgent. Ask our team for the next departure and expected arrival window for your destination before making plans.

If you are shipping for an event or a business deadline, tell us the date. For household goods, stock or materials, compare both options and allow time for customs clearance and collection.

Box size can affect the price

A large, lightweight box takes up more space than a small box of the same weight. Depending on the service, shipping may be charged by weight or the space the box takes up. Include both weight and dimensions when checking an estimate.

Sending several purchases together

If your purchases arrive separately, ask whether they can be packed and shipped together. Confirm any storage and packing charges, and let the team know when the last item is expected.

Mix the two

You can ask to send urgent items by air and the rest by sea. The team will confirm the cost for each shipment, and each will have its own tracking number.

Compare cost and expected arrival dates before choosing. Tell us about any deadline that matters to you.
