How Sending Cargo to Nigeria Works

Four steps, one company, door to door

Sending cargo to Nigeria with GBAS Worldwide takes four steps: get a quote, we collect, we ship, and we deliver to the door — in any of Nigeria's 36 states. Air takes 7 working days; sea takes 4–6 weeks. One company handles the whole journey.

How It Works

Sending Cargo to Nigeria, Made Simple

One company handles the whole journey — from your door in England to the door in Nigeria.

1

Get a quote

Tell us what you're sending and where in Nigeria it's going. We come back with an honest quote by phone, WhatsApp or email.

2

We collect

We arrange collection from your door across England — or you can drop off. Barrels, boxes, parcels or vehicles.

3

We ship

Your cargo travels by air for speed or sea for value, and we handle customs clearance on arrival in Nigeria.

4

Door delivery

We deliver door to door to any of Nigeria's 36 states, and keep you updated along the way.

How your delivery is tracked

You don't need a tracking portal to know where your cargo is — we tell you. You'll hear from us when your shipment is collected, when it departs, when it lands and clears customs, and when it's out for delivery. Between updates, message us on WhatsApp and a real person answers — no ticket numbers, no call centres.

Lagos ports (Apapa/Tin Can) can add delay in peak season — we flag current timings on every quote rather than promising dates we can't keep.

Common questions about the process

How do I book a shipment?

Request a quote by form, phone or WhatsApp. Once you accept the price, we schedule your collection (or agree a drop-off) — that's it. No account, no apps, no payment online.

How will I know where my cargo is?

We update you at each stage: collection confirmed, shipped, arrived and cleared, out for delivery. Ask us any time on WhatsApp and a real person answers.

How long does the whole journey take?

By air, typically 7 working days door to door. By sea, typically 4–6 weeks — longer during peak season or Lagos port congestion, which we'll always flag when you book.

What if I miss my collection?

Tell us as early as you can and we'll rebook it — collections run to a schedule across each region, so the next slot for your area may be a few days later.

Who clears my cargo through Nigeria Customs?

We do — clearance is part of the door-to-door service. Duty on commercial goods or vehicles is charged by Customs based on value; our duty calculator estimates it before you ship.

Can someone else receive the delivery in Nigeria?

Yes — most shipments are received by family or a business partner. We just need the recipient's name, phone number and address in any of the 36 states.
