Once we have collected your belongings they will be packed and ready for shipping in 2-4 working days. We then schedule your shipment onto the next available weekly sailing.

The transit time from the UK to South Africa varies depending on the exact destination. The transit time to Port Elizabeth (Gqeberha) is roughly 28 days, to Durban it is 28 days and to Cape Town the transit time is roughly 42 days.

The final price of your move to South Africa will depend on factors such as how much you are shipping, the value of your belongings (for insurance purposes) and your collection and delivery address.

As a rough idea, the shipping cost for a small move starts at £992 and the cost for a full 20ft container shipment starts at £1,550. These shipping costs do not account for collection, insurance, packing etc. We advice to allocate an additional £1,000-£2,000 for these services to give you a very rough idea of the cost.
