TRANSIT METHODS FOR SENDING EXCESS BAGGAGE TO AUSTRALIA

There are two methods for sending excess baggage to Australia from the UK.

The best transit method for your excess baggage will depend on four main factors – consignment size, budget, urgency and location.

Sending Excess Baggage to Australia via Sea Freight

If you’re looking for the most affordable method for sending excess baggage to Australia, sea freight is probably the best method for you.

When you send excess baggage via sea freight, you are only charged for the space that your belongings take up within a shared container. While sea freight is undeniably the cheapest method for shipping excess baggage, it is also relatively slow. Therefore, you will want to allocate plenty of time for the delivery.

Sending Excess Baggage to Australia via Air Freight

Air Freight is the most convenient and fastest method of sending unaccompanied baggage from the UK to Australia. Air freight costs are greater than sea as quotes are calculated on overall weight of the consignment. However, unaccompanied luggage will be with you in no time! There are a few options for when your goods arrive in Australia; each varying in cost and delivery time.
