Sending cargo to Nigeria from Ilford (IG1)? We collect free along Ilford Lane, the High Road, Cranbrook Road and around the Exchange and station. Your goods go to our Dagenham depot, 494 Gale Street RM9 4NU, just a few minutes east on the A12/A13. Air freight £5.90/kg + £20 handling reaches Lagos and Abuja in days; sea from £70/bag clears Apapa and Tin Can Island in about 4-6 weeks. We handle Form M, SONCAP and PAAR and deliver door-to-door to all 36 states, all-in GBP, nothing to pay in Nigeria.
Free collection around Ilford Lane
The African and Nigerian community around Ilford Lane and the High Road is one of the strongest in east London, and we collect free from all of it. From a flat near Ilford Station to a shop on Cranbrook Road or Ley Street, tell us the weight and we come to you. Our Dagenham depot is barely a few miles away, so IG1 collections are among the quickest we run.
Air cargo to Lagos and Abuja
Air freight from Ilford is £5.90 per kilo plus £20 handling, with delivery to Lagos or Abuja in days. Whether it's documents for a visa, phone accessories for a shop by the Exchange, or medicine a relative needs urgently, we weigh and quote before your cargo leaves IG1 — no hidden extras.
Sea freight that saves you money
For volume, sea freight from £70 a bag is unbeatable. Ilford families load Ghana Must Go bags and barrels with garri, egusi, dried fish and provisions, and they sail to Lagos to clear Apapa or Tin Can Island in about four to six weeks. It's the workhorse service for anyone supplying relatives or running a small import trade back home.
Customs done properly
Form M, SONCAP and PAAR are non-negotiable for Nigerian clearance, and getting them wrong means costly delays at the wharf. As an HMRC Customs Authorised forwarder trading since 2007, we prepare it all. Your quote is one all-in figure in pounds, and there's nothing further to pay when the shipment reaches Nigeria.
Cars, containers and relocations
Beyond bags and barrels, we ship cars and full or shared containers from Ilford to Nigeria. A single vehicle to Lagos, or a container of household goods for a move to Abuja or Port Harcourt — we quote it, load it, and handle Nigerian customs door-to-door so nothing stalls on arrival.
