Freight Cost from UK to Peru
Freight costs to Peru will depend on the size and weight of the consignment and the choice between airfreight and sea freight. For small shipments which do not fill a whole pallet airfreight will often work out cheaper – particularly if sending freight on a door-to-door basis. For larger shipments, sea freight is better value at the expense of a longer transit time. For very large shipments a full shipping container may prove best value.
To enable us to accurately calculate your freight cost to Peru, we will need to know the length, width, height and weight of each item being shipped. If goods are being sent on pallets or in cases then the measurements of these should be supplied.
If you do not have exact dimensions and weights then we can provide an estimated freight cost to Peru which we will adjust when exact specifications are known.
