There are two different removal methods to help you move your belongings from the UK to Adelaide: sea freight and air freight. Learn more about international removal methods.
Full Container Load
Full container load shipping means you have exclusive use of the shipping container. This is typically used when you are shipping a lot of household items, as you can usually fit the contents of a three-bedroom home in a 20ft container.
Shared Container
Shared container shipping is when your belongings are shipped in a container along with the belongings of other customers. When you use shared container shipping, you only pay for the space you take up. Shared container shipping will often be used if you are only transporting a few items and you don’t have enough to fill a single container on your own.
If you are looking for your belongings to reach your new home in Adelaide as soon as possible, air freight might be the better option as it is faster than sea freight shipping. It is particularly useful for smaller shipments or to transport essential items that you will need as soon as you arrive. However, it is a more expensive option.
International removal costs to Adelaide from the UK range from £300 to £7000. The exact cost will depend on how much you are shipping, your chosen service, either shared or full container, and the complexity of your move.
