Cost Of Shipping A Container To Gabon

How Much Does It Cost To Ship A Container To Gabon?

Gabon Container Shipping Cost

Shipping for business or relocating your property to Gabon does not need to be difficult. This is because Three Movers have proven to be reliable in providing the excellent service of guiding clients in the safe shipping of their products and properties across the world.

Factors Affecting The Cost Of Shipping

While we can help you ship your container to Gabon with ease, the following factors should be considered when choosing the freight option that will favor your budget and need.

The Volume/Weight Of The Goods

The weight of your products or properties affects the cost of your shipping to any country. Bulky shipping tends to cost more by air cargo transportation than by the sea. Since it is easier to accommodate large items on sea vessels.

Type Of Transport

International shipping to Gabon is possible through freight transportation to its airports or seaport on the gulf of guinea. Ocean freight is the cheaper of the two options and costs way less than air freight. On the other hand, air freight offers the value of speed as your items get delivered quicker than sea which may take about 15 to 85 days based on distance.

The Distance Of The Journey

The factor of distance affecting the price of transportation applies to both humans and commodities. It's also visible in the daily lives of commercial road users. Local and international transport fare is affected by the theory of the longer the distance, the more you pay for your transportation.

The Destination Port

Gabon's major port of Libreville and other ports have similar charges on imports and a general tax average rate of 18 percent depending on the category of your items. However, considerations should be made on the rates and possible changes to them.

What Size Of Shipping Container Works Best For Me?

Container sizes determine what you can transport, which is why we will give you an estimate of the capacity of the commonly used containers of 20ft and 40ft.

How Big Is A 20Ft Container?

A 20ft container can easily carry the content of a three-bedroom apartment and is equivalent to the size of a standard single garage. It is the best choice for items with less volume or size.

How Big Is A 40ft Container?

A 40ft container by number contains twice as much as the 20ft container and provides more space and comfort for your items. It is the best choice in ensuring that you and your loved ones do not throw away any item of emotional attachment while moving to Gabon.

The Difference Between FCL and LCL

The full container load is used when you are paying for a full container for your shipments. Clients who can not estimate the size of items or feel they are too small to pay for the 40ft container may use the option of less than container load wherein you will share the container with other clients who took the same option for their shipping.

Guiding you also means that we go the length to give you the required information to assist your planning financially and psychologically. This is why we are bringing to your notice these additional charges.

  • Customs duties
  • General Rate Increase (GRI)
  • Container inspection fees
  • Inland delivery charges
