Don't have enough goods to fill an entire container?
We offer a great solution for families and business who are moving across the globe.
Shared Container / Groupage Service
If you have less than a full container load, you can ship your belongings to any worldwide destination using our groupage service. This is essentially a shared container service. If you aren’t shipping enough to fill a 20ft container, you can split the cost with other consignments. This is a cheaper option for many people who do not want to ship their whole house or are trying to keep the costs down for their move. The approximate transit time for a shared container / groupage service is between only 4 to 6 weeks longer than door to door depending on the final destination you are relocating to.

What can fit inside a groupage?
A 40ft shared/groupage container is a popular shipping option for clients who need to transport their goods overseas. This container can accommodate a variety of items, ranging from small packages to large pieces of furniture.
It’s important to note that a 40ft container is typically shared/groupage, meaning that it will be shared with other clients’ goods. This can be a cost-effective option for shipping smaller quantities of cargo, as you only pay for the space you need.
Overall, a 40ft shared/groupage container is a versatile and practical shipping option that can accommodate a wide range of items. If you’re unsure whether your cargo will fit into a 40ft container, don’t hesitate to contact your shipping provider for more information.
