Cost Of Shipping A Container To Kiribati

How Much Does It Cost Of Shipping A Container To Kiribati?

Kiribati Container Shipping Cost

There are several stumbling blocks when it comes to international shipping, especially if you have no prior experience. Each country has its own set of rules. You don't have to be concerned, though, since Three Movers is here to make things simple for you.

We help ship containers to countries all across the world, including Kiribati. You'll need to receive a quote, which is entirely free, to figure out how much this procedure will cost. However, there are a few things to grasp first.

Factors That Affect The Cost Of Shipping

When moving a container internationally, there are numerous issues to consider. However, there are five key factors to consider in general. The following are the details:

  • Your cargo's volume and weight
  • The mode of transportation
  • The amount of time it will take to deliver your package/
  • Charges that must be paid at the destination port
  • The season (the time of the year)

Which Size of Shipping Containers Works Best for Me?

The 20-foot and 40-foot shipping containers are the most common sizes. A three-bedroom apartment's worth of belongings can fit in a 20-foot container, while those of a four- or five-bedroom home require a 40-foot one. The 40-foot container has double the storage space of the 20-foot container but costs only about as much.

Difference Between FCL and LCL

If you have enough stuff to fill a shipping container, the shipping process will be accelerated because your items will be loaded into the container rapidly. As a result, unlike groupage, you won't have to wait until it's completely full before using it.

If you have a little load and aren't in a hurry, groupage (sharing a container) can be a better option. This is the most affordable means of transit, but it is also the slowest. "Less than a container load" is the term for this kind of partial cargo (LCL).

In contrast, a volume greater than this will need the usage of the entire container. This is referred to as a "full container load" (FCL).

Understanding The Different Types of Freight Transportation

Depending on your products, suppliers, and trading practices, you may need one or a combination of freight transportation (air cargo and ocean freight) to get your cargo to the right place.

Kiribati is a small island republic in the Pacific Ocean. It is difficult to get to and from Kiribati, and there is restricted access. Due to the island's isolation, regular flight or ocean freight services are the main methods to get to Kiribati. Kiribati has two international airports, one each on the islands of Tarawa and Kiritimati. Shipping products through air freight is usually costly in Kiribati so you may want to use sea freight. Sea freight services are frequently used since they are less expensive. However, the lack of enforcement of the Maritime Act, which has an impact on safety, is a problem with inter-island shipping services in Kiribati.

Additional Shipping Costs

You may incur additional delivery expenses, such as:

  • Insurance
  • Container inspection fees
  • Inland delivery charges
  • Custom duties
  • General rate increase
  • Quarantine fees
