What is included in the Container Shipping Service and How does it work?

We do not deliver shipping containers to residential addresses.  Back in the day we did, but due to so many parking restrictions and local authority permits we no longer deliver containers to residential addresses.

We start by assessing the size of the container you require to export your household goods to Trinidad. This can be done by a site visit to your property or by way of video call or photos of the items you require exported.

We will provide you with a quote to remove the items from you home to our Depot Location for loading.

You will be responsible for packing your items suitable for transit inside the container. If you can arrange your own transport you can elect to deliver your items to our depot

We provide 7 working days free storage as our demurrage inclusive in the quotation for removal of your goods and/or the container export. After 7 working days further storage charges will be applied if delay of export is caused on your part.

Booking is confirmed once full payment in advance is made for the collection (if required) and packing and export of your container from UK to Trinidad.

Once we have your household items safely stored in our depot we will take an inventory of your goods.

We then book a 20/40 ft container to be delivered to our depot where your household items are loaded into the container.

There is a weight limit of 23 tonnes for containers to be loaded in the UK, but don’t worry, that’s plenty of weight capacity for most persons.

Once we load your goods you are provided with a Bill Of Lading for the receiver in Trinidad to clear your goods.  You can get an estimate of the costs likely to be faced when clearing your container for the local releasing agent by using our clearing costs calculator here.  The volume of your shipment container will be contained on your Bill of Lading which is required for the cost estimator. Alternatively, you can use the container sizes page to calculate the volume of your container to input into the releasing agent cost calculator.

You can find out more about the costs of shipping a container UK to Trinidad on our page here.
