FULL OR PART LOAD SHIPPING TO CHINA

The quantity of items you want to send to China will determine the shipping service you require, so we advise you make use of our FREE HOME SURVEY no matter if you are sending a few bags or a whole home load.

If you are shipping a commercial premise, a whole home load or bulky items of furniture alongside a vehicle, this will necessitate full-load China shipping. Your belongings will be loaded onto a sole use shipping container and you will pay one flat fee for the 20ft or 40ft container. If you are only shipping a few boxes and cartons, small furniture items or the contents of a one-bedroom apartment, you will only need our part-load service where your China shipping costs are based on the volume of your consignment. Your items will be taken to our depot for securely packing, loading onto a shared shipping container and sent to China.
