Are there Different Transport Methods to Ship from the UK to Thailand?

Some shipping companies to Thailand offer a one-size-fits-all plan, but our experts know that this doesn’t work! We provide a completely unique experience to every customer when shipping to Thailand from the UK, but we employ this policy across all of our services. We have three shipping methods to use when shipping stuff to Thailand; sea freight, air freight and road freight. Each method – or a combination of – is beneficial to different customer requirements. Sea Freight If you are looking for cheap shipping to Thailand, sea freight is your go-to option! Sea freight’s economic costs make it the most popular method of transport among our customers. Your items are arranged onto a shared or sole-use shipping container, which is loaded onto our cargo ship to Thailand for delivery. Sea freight is the slowest of our transport methods and you can expect your items to arrive within weeks for the UK to Thailand shipping. For example, the average delivery time for air freight is 7 to 10 days, in contrast to the estimated 6 to 8 weeks for sea freight, but this is reflected in the bargain cost of shipping to Thailand. Air Freight Air freight to Thailand is the most expensive of our transport methods; however, it is the quickest and sometimes the most convenient way to send goods to Thailand. We pack your possessions onto a commercial air carrier ready for take-off to your chosen airport in Thailand. Air freight is the best transportation to Thailand method if you need your items sending in a hurry as your consignment will reach you in a matter of days. This timeliness does come with a much higher price tag than shipping to Thailand using sea freight. Road Freight Road freight is our bonus method that cannot be used alone except for UK deliveries. Road freight is an accompaniment service for our sea and air freight deliveries. It is frequently used when a customer lives far away from our UK port or depots, or when customers require home delivery of their cargo in Thailand.

How do you calculate the Cost of Shipping to Thailand?

Our services for shipping items to Thailand are adjusted to suit your budget and time-frame, but there are three principal factors that will influence your overall shipping costs to Thailand from the UK; load size, transport method and end destination in Thailand. If you are looking for cheap shipping to Thailand, sea freight is the recommended method as shipping costs from the UK to Thailand are primarily estimated based on the dimensions of your load. By assessing your load via our online home survey, we can determine if you require LCL or FCL container shipping to Thailand. If you choose Less Container Load, your items are loaded onto a shared shipping container alongside other Anglo Pacific customers’ and you will only be charged for space your goods consume within this container. Alternatively, it might be more advantageous for you to use Full Container Load, this is the assignment of a 20ft or 40ft container for your sole use and you will be charged a set rate based on which size shipping container you use. This is advantageous for very large loads, such as office removals, a whole home load and car shipping to Thailand. If you send to Thailand using air freight, expect to pay considerably more for this service as the bulk of your Thailand shipping costs are calculated based on the WEIGHT of your items. With this being said, air freight is usually only used when a customer needs their items urgently and it is a small load, a box or two, or a suitcase, for example. Another contributing factor to the cost of shipping to Thailand is the distance that your goods are travelling and how they are delivered upon arrival in Thailand.

Shipping from the UK to Thailand

We offer three main shipping methods:

Sea Freight

Sea freight is the most cost effective for large loads. Your items are loaded into a shared container (LCL) or a dedicated container (FCL) depending on your needs.

Delivery Time: 6 to 8 weeks
Cost: Varies with load size and container use

Shared containers are ideal for smaller loads, full containers for larger consignments such as a whole household or vehicle.

Air Freight

Air freight is the fastest way to send goods to Thailand. Ideal for urgent deliveries or small loads.

Delivery Time: 7 to 10 days
Cost: Weight dependent

Due to the higher cost air freight is usually used for small essential items.

Road Freight

Road freight supports both sea and air freight. It covers the transport of goods within the UK to our ports or depots and final delivery in Thailand.

What Affects Shipping Costs

Three main factors affect the cost of shipping from the UK to Thailand:

Load Size: Smaller loads use shared containers, larger loads may require a full container.
