LCL, or Less Than Container Load, means your shipment shares container space with other consignments. It is cost-effective for smaller volumes where a full container is not needed. FCL, or Full Container Load, gives you dedicated container space from origin to destination. It is the right choice for larger household moves or where your company requires full control over what is in the container and how it is handled throughout the journey.

Excess baggage shipping is designed for employees moving personal items that exceed airline limits but do not require a full container. We collect the items, handle export documentation, and arrange door-to-door delivery to the destination. It is a practical and cost-efficient solution for employees relocating with smaller volumes of personal effects.

We manage customs documentation as part of the service. Our team prepares the required paperwork for each shipment based on the destination country's requirements, advises on what items may be subject to duties, and coordinates directly with customs authorities where needed. Employees are guided through what is required from them before anything is shipped, reducing the risk of delays or unexpected costs at the border.

Timelines depend on the shipping method, origin, and destination. Excess baggage and airfreight are the fastest options. Sea freight via LCL or FCL typically takes longer depending on the route. We provide clear timelines at the outset of each move so your HR team and the employee both know what to expect. We plan shipments around assignment start dates wherever possible.

We manage the full process. From the initial enquiry through to delivery at the destination, one team oversees every stage. This includes documentation, collection, customs clearance, and final delivery. Your HR team has a single point of contact throughout, and employees are kept informed at every stage so there are no gaps in communication.

The process begins with a conversation about your requirements — the number of employees relocating, the routes involved, the volumes, and the timelines. From there we recommend the most suitable shipping solution for each move and manage everything from that point forward. Get in touch with our team and we will guide you through the next steps.
