Air Freight Service
Fast, Secure, and Efficient Air Freight Solutions
When time is of the essence, Palmers Relocations offers premium air freight services to ensure your goods reach their destination quickly and safely. Whether you’re relocating internationally or sending a few essential items abroad, our air freight solutions provide the fastest option for delivering your belongings.
Why Choose Air Freight for Your Move?
- Speed: Air freight is the quickest method for transporting goods internationally. If you need your items to arrive within days rather than weeks, air freight is ideal.
- Security: Air freight offers a secure way to transport valuable or fragile items, reducing the risk of damage.
- Global Reach: With a worldwide network of FIDI and FAIM-accredited partners, we ensure your goods are handled with the utmost care, no matter the destination.
What Items Are Best Suited for AirFreight? AirFreight is typically recommended for smaller, high-priority items such as:
- Personal valuables
- Important documents
- Electronics
- Tools
- Fragile goods
- Personal effects that will be needed straight after arrival
For larger shipments, sea freight might be a more cost-effective solution.
How Does Air Freight Work?
- Packing: We provide professional packing services, ensuring all items are secure for air transportation. Our team uses industry-standard materials to protect fragile goods.
- Customs Clearance: Palmers Relocations handles all documentation and customs requirements to minimise delays.
- Delivery: Once your items arrive, we offer door-to-door delivery to your final destination, ensuring a seamless experience from start to finish.
Prohibited Items for Air Freight
To comply with international regulations, certain items are prohibited from being shipped via air freight. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) classifies dangerous goods into 9 categories that are restricted for air transportation:
- Explosives (e.g., fireworks, ammunition)
- Gases (e.g., compressed gases, aerosols)
- Flammable Liquids (e.g., gasoline, alcohol)
- Flammable Solids (e.g., matches, sulphur)
- Oxidizing Substances and Organic Peroxides (e.g., bleach, fertilizers)
- Toxic and Infectious Substances (e.g., pesticides, medical waste)
- Radioactive Material (e.g., certain medical or research items)
- Corrosives (e.g., batteries, acids)
- Miscellaneous Dangerous Goods (e.g., lithium batteries, dry ice)
Make sure none of these items are included in your shipment.
Air Freight vs. Sea Freight: Which Is Right for You?
- Cost: Air freight is generally more expensive due to the speed and logistics involved, while sea freight is a more affordable option for larger shipments.
- Speed: If time is a critical factor, air freight is unbeatable in terms of delivery speed.
- Volume: Sea freight is better suited for large shipments or when budget is a priority.
