South Africa shipping costs

Hi Lyle, the quotes we have received are about R110,000.00 for a 12m container, excluding a whole lot of fees that will be calculated at destination

Not sure how that compares with the ones you've received?

What size container are you looking at taking? And are you shipping a car, or just your household effects?

Hey Lyle. We just moved from Jhb to Mauritius last week. Get hold of me on what's app on xxx. I can give you some advice on the container.

Hi Elaine, would you mind if I got in touch as well? I'd love some advice regarding the move, it seems very daunting at the moment

Hi Elaine. We are also planning on relocating to Mauritius. Could you let me know who you utilised. Thanks

I also need to choose someone to move us from CT to MU in Feb next year ?
Help please

A fantastic company called Incotrance. They are based in Jhb.

Give Incotrance a call they are fantastic.

Hi Elaine, we are looking into shipping some stuff over from SA to Mru. Would you be able to give me some info regarding costs etc from your experience? Thanks so much.

Kind Regards

hi
could you help with some info on  sending container from south africa with car and boat.
what is the procedure , and whom can we contact to get all the info once off

Hi Bruce. Send me a contact number and I'll give you a call.

Hi,

There are several companies that provide such services. I prefer Velogic because they have a solid group behind them and fully recommend their services.

I would love to give you the contact details of their Manager of Sea Operations but will refrain to do so as this seems to be against the rules.

PM me if you wish or just contact them directly.

cheers

Hi Dahnae

I am sure @ElaineO will have answers to your questions above, but also bear in mind that if you decide to BUY property on the island to obtain a Residence/Occupation permit, then there is a small window of 3 months AFTER you have obtained your RP/OP within which you can bring in 1 container of household belongings tax-free, otherwise you will also need to add Import Duty on the value of your container of household goods - as you will have to do in any case with the car.
