Shipping Options for Your Move to France
Air Freight
Air freight is the most time-efficient way of transporting urgent shipments of specific personal items. Often, customers opt to have a smaller air freight shipment delivered with essentials while waiting for the sea-freight shipment which is a more cost-effective choice but takes a longer time to arrive.
Sea Freight
– Full Container Loads (FCL) or sole-use shipping containers in sizes of 20′ or 40′ are utilized for complete household moves. In addition to furniture and household goods, we can ship additional items such as vehicles. FCL offers the most efficient and speedy solution for direct door-to-door service.
– Shared Container Loads (Groupage) – the cost-effective way to transport your goods overseas.
Goods are loaded into the container along with other people’s goods to the same destination and you split the shipping cost paying only for the volume being used in the container.
– Less than Full Container Loads (LCL) – great for small shipments that require fast delivery. Shipment is wrapped and secured in wooden crates and then loaded into a container with other goods.
