PACK & SEND offers many benefits that make them the perfect company for international removals to Australia:
Shipping times to Australia can vary depending on various factors such as the shipping method, the shipment’s origin, the type of goods being shipped, and the customs or clearance process.
Typically, the shipping times for international shipments, including those to Australia, can range from a few days to several weeks.
For express or expedited air services, delivery to Australia may take around 2 to 5 business days. This option is generally faster but may come at a higher cost.
Standard shipping methods, such as air freight or sea freight, can take longer, usually ranging from 1 for air to 12 weeks by sea, depending on the location and logistics involved.
It’s important to note that these estimates are approximate and can vary depending on specific circumstances. Custom inspections, unforeseen delays, or remote delivery locations can impact the shipping time.

When shipping parcels from the UK to Australia, it’s important to consider customs regulations and any applicable visa requirements. Here are some key points to keep in mind:
While we take care of all the details for transporting your packages from the UK to Australia, it’s important to consider these additional steps for a stress-free journey:
Moving to Australia can vary in difficulty depending on individual circumstances and visa requirements. It typically involves a visa application process, meeting specific criteria, and complying with immigration regulations. It’s advisable to research and consult official sources for the most accurate and up-to-date information regarding the specific visa category you may be eligible for.
You can send furniture from the UK to Australia. However, it’s important to consider customs regulations, shipping costs, and any applicable import duties or taxes. It’s recommended to consult with shipping companies or freight forwarders experienced in international shipping for guidance and assistance with the process.
A British citizen can potentially move to Australia permanently. The most common pathway is through skilled migration programs, family sponsorship, or investment-based visas. Each pathway has specific eligibility requirements and visa application processes. It’s advisable to consult official government sources or seek professional advice for accurate and up-to-date information.
Australia has many prohibited items which are not allowed to be imported. These include some glazed ceramics, some cosmetic products, some stationary and some plants. If you want to see the full list of prohibited goods in Australia visit this website.
Whilst these goods are prohibited for import, solutions can be found in some circumstances, contact your local PACK & SEND service centre for more information.
When sending your things to Australia there are two methods PACK & SEND can use to transport your goods. We offer both sea and air freight services – for more information about this head here.
When shipping by air we expect it to take 5-7 days and by sea 12-14 weeks. Although whilst deliveries do generally take these times as a result of customs clearance these can differ between jobs.
