Shipping cargo to Nigeria from Borehamwood (WD6)? Rolats collects free along Shenley Road, near Elstree Studios and around Borehamwood & Elstree station. Goods route through our Dagenham depot at 494 Gale Street, RM9 4NU. Air freight £5.90/kg plus £20 handling reaches Lagos and Abuja in days; sea from £70 per bag takes roughly 4–6 weeks via Apapa and Tin Can Island. We handle Form M and SONCAP and deliver door-to-door, all-in GBP — nothing to pay in Nigeria.
Free collection in Borehamwood
Borehamwood is a genuinely diverse commuter town, and its Nigerian residents ship with us regularly. We collect free of charge along the length of Shenley Road, near the famous Elstree Studios, out along Elstree Way and on the residential streets close to Borehamwood & Elstree station. Being further north than East London makes no difference to you — we build our collection route around Borehamwood so the distance is our problem, not yours.
Air freight in days
For anything urgent — paperwork, electronics, clothing, gifts — air freight from Borehamwood is £5.90 per kilo plus a flat £20 handling charge. Your cargo is consolidated at our Dagenham depot and flown into Lagos or Abuja within days. Every kilo is weighed openly and the quoted price is final; your family collects in Nigeria with nothing left to pay at the other end.
Sea freight for barrels and bags
Sending a barrel of garri, egusi and dried fish, or a Ghana Must Go bag of clothes and provisions? Sea freight from £70 per bag or barrel is the affordable choice. Shipments sail into Apapa and Tin Can Island in Lagos over about four to six weeks, and we arrange onward delivery to any of Nigeria's 36 states. We wrap and label everything at the depot before loading.
Customs done for you
Rolats takes the stress out of Nigerian customs. We are HMRC Customs Authorised, hold an EORI number and have run as Companies House company 06153914 since 2007. From Borehamwood we prepare your Form M, secure SONCAP where it applies and process the PAAR so nothing stalls at the port. There is no separate agent to pay and no surprise charge — customs is inside your all-in GBP quote.
Cars and containers to order
Whether it is a single vehicle bound for Lagos or a shared container of household goods, we quote cars and containers individually. Borehamwood customers moving home or trading with Nigeria often combine a car with their personal effects in one shipment. Tell us the size and destination state and we will send a clear, all-in GBP figure with nothing to settle in Nigeria.
