Export Costs to China
The cost of exporting to China will depend upon the type and size of your shipment, and whether it is shipped by sea or air. For shipments sent by sea the export costs will also depend on whether your goods are shipped as a part load or a full load shipment.
Air freight costs to China are based on a combination of the dimensions and weight of your consignment. It is important that this information is accurate in order for us to prepare an exact quotation for your air shipping costs.
Sea shipping to China can be on either a full load or part load basis. For goods sent as a full load, shipping costs are based on a lump sum for an entire shipping container, and will not vary, no matter how full or empty the container is. For goods sent as a part load, the shipping cost will depend upon the amount of space your goods take up in the container. It is therefore important that you have accurate sizes of your goods for shipment so we can prepare an accurate quotation for your shipping costs.
