Shared Container Service- Tema & Accra (LCL/GROUPAGE)

Fastlane can assist you in shipping your goods in a shared container from the UK to Accra or Tema Ghana. The goods will be packed safely in the container and labelled correctly to guarantee that they will arrive in the same condition as when they left the UK.

The amount of money you pay for shipping your goods to Accra, Takoradi or Tema (Ghana) will depend entirely on how much space your goods take up on the vessel. As a guide, 10 boxes occupying about 1 cubic metre of the container and weighing 200 kg total, will cost around £200 to ship to Tema or Accra in Ghana. This cost may be higher or lower depending on the size of the boxes and their weight.
