Air freight is £5.90/kg plus £20 handling into Kotoka within days; sea freight starts from £70 per bag or barrel to the Port of Tema in around 4-6 weeks. We raise the CTN before sailing and deliver door-to-door across Ghana, all-in GBP with nothing to pay in Ghana.
A diverse, student-rich community
New Cross is one of London's most mixed neighbourhoods, home to Ghanaian families alongside a big student population drawn by Goldsmiths. Whether you are a student sending books and belongings home or a family shipping provisions to relatives, New Cross's ties to Ghana are strong. Rolats offers both groups a simple, honest route to Accra, Kumasi and every region.
Free collection around SE14
From the busy junction at New Cross Gate to the streets around Goldsmiths and up towards Telegraph Hill, our driver collects free of charge. Students moving out and families sending barrels both benefit. We wrap, label and record everything before it heads to our Dagenham depot for onward air or sea shipping to Ghana.
Air freight for students and urgent goods
Air freight at £5.90 per kilo plus a £20 handling fee is popular with New Cross students who need to send things home fast. It lands at Kotoka in Accra within days, ideal for laptops, documents and personal items. Everything is priced in pounds before dispatch, so budgets stay predictable.
Sea freight and barrels
For heavier or bulkier loads, sea freight from £70 per barrel is the affordable choice, reaching the Port of Tema in roughly four to six weeks. New Cross families send barrels of gari, shito and provisions, while students often ship boxes of belongings home this way. Cars and containers can be quoted separately.
All-in GBP, door-to-door
Every New Cross quote is all-inclusive and in pounds, covering the CTN raised before sailing and full door-to-door delivery across Ghana after ICUMS clearance at Tema. Your recipient pays nothing on arrival. Rolats is HMRC Customs Authorised, holds an EORI, and has served the community since 2007 with a 4.7/5 rating.
