Two Options

Door to Airport or Door to Door

Door to airport (CFR): recommended

Includes collection, customs clearance in South Africa, airline handling in South Africa and transport to the destination airport. You clear it and collect it at the destination.
Excludes destination clearance, depot or terminal charges at the destination, storage and examination fees if stopped, and AMS filing for sea freight to the USA.

Door to door (DAP)

Available to some countries only, and much more expensive. Includes collection, delivery to your door abroad, customs clearance in South Africa and at the destination, airline handling and all transport fees.
Excludes storage and examination fees if customs stops the shipment, and AMS filing for sea freight to the USA.

Our tip: save by clearing it yourself

Door to airport is by far the cheaper option. You pay the airline handling fee at the destination, process customs yourself with your passport and the inventory, and collect your baggage at the airport. Ask us for both prices and we will tell you what the destination's customs office will ask for.

How It Works

From Your Door to Your Destination

Measure and weigh

Measure each bag or box in centimetres and weigh it. Our calculator shows the chargeable weight.

Choose air or sea

Air is faster; sea groupage is usually far cheaper for larger volumes.

Book a collection

We collect from your home, office or student residence on a working day.

Documents

You complete the inventory and clearing instruction online, and send a copy of your ID (South African citizens) or passport; we handle the export entry.

Collect or receive

You get the airway bill number to clear and collect at the airport, or pay more for door delivery where it is offered.
