Ship Your Container Overseas
Shipping a container overseas doesn’t have to be stressful. Whether you’re relocating abroad or transporting personal belongings internationally, comparing multiple providers can help you find the right solution. We make it easy to receive quotes and compare reliable international container shipping companies.
How International Container Shipping Works
You don’t need to know all the logistics – that’s what our experts are for! Here’s what happens when you ship a container overseas:
- Your items are packed and loaded into a 20ft or 40ft container – depending on how much you’re shipping. You can choose a Full Container (FCL) if you want your own, or a Shared Container (LCL) if you want to save money.
- Your container is shipped by sea (the most cost-effective way) or air (for the fastest delivery). Your mover will advise you on the best option for your route, timing, and budget.
- You receive support at every step – from packing and customs paperwork to delivery at your new destination.
Container Shipping Costs
The cost of international container shipping depends on factors such as shipment volume, route, container size, and the services required. Below are some common relocation routes and typical cost ranges:
- Moving to Spain from the UK: approximately €2,000 – €5,500+
- Moving from the USA to Australia: approximately $4,500 – $12,000+
- Moving from France to Switzerland: approximately €1,500 – €4,500+
- Moving from Kuwait to the USA: approximately $4,000 – $10,000+
These estimates are intended as a general guide only. Actual costs can vary depending on whether you choose a Full Container Load (FCL) or Less than Container Load (LCL) service, the amount being shipped, and any additional services such as packing, storage, customs assistance, or door-to-door delivery.
