Canada Shipping Options Explained
Groupage: A low-cost option where your goods are consolidated with other customers’ possessions into a shared shipping container. Good for smaller moves, you only pay for the space you take up, so it’s an economical solution if you don’t have enough to fill a complete container by yourself. While groupage may be a little bit slower since it involves consolidating multiple shipments, it is the most popular choice for moving overseas.
Full Container Load (FCL): Your whole house in a shipping container, all to yourself. This is the best way to move a lot of items from your old home in the UK to your new home in Canada, with minimal wait and added security.
Air Freight: In case your products need to be delivered as quickly as possible, air freight is the fastest way to get goods to Canada. While more expensive than sea freight, it’s the best choice for essential products or rush relocations where time cannot be wasted.
