Why choose Anglo Pacific for your luggage and box shipping to Germany?

When it comes to sending your items to Germany, here are a few benefits:

• Excess Baggage Fees: Airlines charge extortionate amounts for excess luggage, especially if your bags are overweight. Sending your luggage or boxes ahead means you can pack light and avoid these charges.
• Airport Hassle: Airports like Frankfurt and Munich can be busy and stressful. Oversized luggage or multiple bags only add to the stress. Sending your luggage directly to your new home means you can avoid the airport terminals altogether.
• Convenience: When you send your luggage and boxes, you don’t have to worry about bringing them with you. Your items will be delivered directly to your new home in Germany.

Sending your belongings can save you money in the long run:

• Avoiding Expensive Airline Charges: Airlines charge a small fortune for excess luggage. Sending your items means you can avoid these charges and save in the long run.
• No Heavy Luggage to Drag Around: When you send your luggage ahead, you don’t have to worry about lugging heavy bags around busy airport terminals.

Whether you have a few bags or several boxes, this service is great value and convenient.

What is the difference between air freight and sea freight?

We offer two main shipping options to Germany: air freight and sea freight. Depending on your timescale and budget, one option is more suitable than the other:

• Air Freight: This is our fastest service, taking approximately 5-7 days to reach Germany. If you need your items in a hurry, air freight is the way to go. Although faster, air freight is generally more expensive than sea freight.
• Sea Freight: If you have a bit more time to spare, sea freight is a cost-effective option. Shipments typically take 6-8 weeks to arrive in Germany, making it perfect for larger items like furniture or bulky possessions.

Both options are reliable, so you can choose the one that suits you best.
