What we ship

Personal effects & household effects

“Personal effects” and “household effects” are really the same thing — the clothes, books, kitchenware, furniture and belongings that make up a home. We ship personal effects and household goods of every size from the UK, from a few boxes to a whole household, by air for speed or sea for value. Whatever you call it, you tell us what you’re sending and where, and we handle the packing list, the customs paperwork and the freight.
