Sea freight shipping from Australia to the UK follows a structured process.
We collect or receive your cargo at the origin, prepare the required documentation, including the commercial invoice and packing list, and arrange loading into containers. If you book a full container load, your goods travel in one container. If you book LCL shipping, your goods share container space with other shipments.
Containers move via ocean freight services to the destination port in the UK. On arrival, goods pass through customs clearance before final delivery to your door, warehouse or distribution point.
Transit times vary depending on origin port, destination country routing and market conditions, but sea freight remains the cheapest way to move large quantities of goods between Australia and the UK.
Your shipping method depends on speed, cost and cargo type.
Sea freight is the cheaper option for large shipments, full container loads and bulky cargo. Ocean freight rates offer better cost control when transporting goods in large volumes.
Air freight suits urgent shipments, express shipping needs or high-value goods where transit times are critical.
If you are unsure whether sea or air freight fits your shipment, we provide detailed information and recommend cost effective options based on weight, volume and delivery deadlines.

There are two types of Sea Freight rates; LCL and FCL, each offer a different type of shipment. When you import goods to the UK via sea freight shipping, goods are loaded into containers that are then loaded onto vessels for transit.
Depending on the size of your shipment, you will either be able to fill a full container with only your goods or you may need to share your container with other people.
LCL – Less than Container Load
LCL cargo is for when you do not have enough cargo to fill a full container so instead of spending out money on a whole container where space will not be fully utilised we offer a service where you can share container space with our other customers thus saving you money.
FCL – Full Container Load
For when you do have enough cargo to fill a full container, FCL is your option. Typically provided in 20, 40 & 40-foot-high cube variations we can provide excellent rates, weekly sails and fast transits. For frozen foodstuffs we can provide reefer containers which are refrigerated containers specially designed to carry frozen food.
