What is the port to port?
The port to port is a shipping service in which the removal company delivers goods to the port of origin, and the customer is responsible for collecting them from the destination port, managing customs clearance, and arranging onward delivery. Port-to-port excludes destination-side services and is only suitable for customers with reliable local knowledge or a trusted contact in the destination country.
Also known as: Port-to-port, P2P
PSS Tip: If you are considering a port-to-port service to save money, make sure you fully understand the customs process at your destination and have reliable local support. An error in customs documentation can result in costs and delays that far exceed the savings on the shipping service.
