The honest caveat
These are guide prices. The final figure depends on collection location, destination, dimensions, weight, declared value, packing complexity, urgency and any special requirements.
Shipping to Iceland specifically
Road to a northern European port with an onward sea freight leg to Reykjavík, then road delivery from the port. Typical transit 8–14 days.
Iceland is outside the EU customs union, so an Icelandic import declaration is required and duty and VAT are assessed on entry.
Sailing frequency sets the schedule. Weather-related delays are normal in winter and we quote realistic bands.

Frequently asked questions
What will it cost?
Guide prices start at £295 for this type of work. Cartons, cases and part loads — packed on site, inventoried and delivered to a European address. The final figure depends on collection location, destination, dimensions, weight, declared value, packing complexity, urgency and any special requirements.
How quickly can you help?
Message us on WhatsApp with the details and you will get a considered answer the same day during working hours. Urgent collections in mainland Great Britain can often be arranged within 60–90 minutes.
Do I need to pack anything myself?
No. That is the point of the service. We arrive with the materials, pack on site, and take the goods away the same visit. If you have already packed and want us to check the work before export, we will do that instead and tell you honestly whether it will survive the journey.
Can you collect from a house, a business and a storage unit on the same job?
Yes. Multi-stop collections across mainland Great Britain are routine. Give us the addresses and access details when you request a quote and we will build them into one route rather than charging you for separate trips.
