:: OUR SHIPPING RELOCATION SERVICE COMPRISE OF FOUR MAIN AREAS:

FCL – Full Container Loads: ideals for customers looking to ship the entire contents of their property. Container size (e.g. 20, 40, 45 ft) is dependent on the volume of shipment and the size of your property (a 3-bedroom house is roughly equivalent to 20ft shipping container).

LCL – Less Than a Container Load: essentially a priority service, generally transit time is dependent on chosen destination - popular with private and business customers looking to relocate small amounts, where the emphasis is on speed over price. We’ll pack your effects into a lift-van case that offers the same time-frames as customers who have their own exclusive container. Our LCL shipping service is also suitable for customers looking to ship high-risk items where minimal handling is required.

Groupage service – a consolidation service for customers needing to ship small amounts of effects in consolidation with other consignees. Emphasis here is on price over speed. Approximate door-to-door time takes up to 12 weeks. The Groupage service option is ideal for customers looking to ship anything from one box, to part of the contents of their property.

Air-freight – required by customers looking to send out very small amount of personal effects, usually in advance of their sea-freight container. Approximate transit time is 7-10 days.

:: FULL LIABILITY COVER

We also offer the option of full liability cover to customers moving with Northovers meaning your goods and personal effects will be covered for the duration of the move, from start to finish.

:: STORAGE

Need A Temporary Home For Your Belongings? Perhaps you need long-term storage solution for your valuable personal effects whilst you move overseas – or you need a temporary home for your furniture.

:: PERSONAL SERVICE: ONE POINT OF CONTACT

Another key selling point that separates Northover’s from the majority of our competition is our personal orientated service. As a valued customer, you’ll deal mostly with only one person, from start to finish. We like to keep our customers informed every step of the way.
Lots of competitors departmentalise (shipping stage one person, packaging stage one person). We keep it consistent!
