Cargo to Nigeria from Barking & Dagenham

Cargo to Nigeria collected across Barking & Dagenham — our home borough.

Barking & Dagenham is home to 9,434 Nigeria-born residents — the third largest Nigerian community of any area we collect from. It is also where we are based, so collection here is as local as it gets. Barrels, boxes, parcels and vehicles, door to door to all 36 states.

This is our home borough. GBAS Worldwide operates from Dagenham, which means the shortest journey any shipment makes is the one that starts here — and it is also why we understand this corridor from the inside rather than as a market on a map.

Barking & Dagenham has one of the fastest-growing Nigerian communities in the country, and the traffic reflects it: family barrels of food and clothing, parcels to Lagos and Abuja, vehicles, and everything in between.

About Barking & Dagenham

The borough has changed enormously in twenty years. The Becontree estate — once one of the largest in Europe and overwhelmingly white British — is now among the most diverse parts of outer London, and Barking town centre has grown into a genuine hub for West African families.

Being based here shapes how we work. Collections in the borough are straightforward to arrange, and it is not unusual for people to drop off with us directly rather than book a pickup.

What people here usually send

Family barrels — food staples, clothing and household goods
Parcels and documents by air to Lagos and Abuja
Vehicles by RoRo through the Thames ports
Larger household consignments for relocations
