1m3 in shared containers<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Affordable \u00b7 Efficient \u00b7 Sustainable<\/strong><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>Groupage transport is a cost\u2011effective way to send goods to and from foreign countries. How? By sharing space in a sea container with others moving to the same destination. This makes it possible to ship even very small volumes \u2014 starting from just <strong>1m\u00b3<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Moving household goods by sea has become increasingly popular for international relocations. But because a standard sea container is large, many customers don\u2019t have enough belongings to fill one on their own. That\u2019s where <strong>groupage shipping<\/strong> comes in: a shared container where you split the cost with others.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 28px;\">A Greener Way to Move Internationally<\/span><\/h3>\n<div>\n<p><strong>Groupage is not only affordable \u2014 it\u2019s also a more sustainable choice.<\/strong><br \/>\nBy combining shipments into a single shared container, we reduce the total number of containers on the ocean. This means:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>fewer departures<\/li>\n<li>lower CO\u2082 emissions per customer<\/li>\n<li>maximum use of available container space<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For anyone who wants a <strong>more environmentally conscious way to move internationally<\/strong>, groupage is one of the most efficient and climate-friendly solutions available.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>Groupage destinations abroad<\/h3>\n<div>Transpack operates groupage containers to <strong>10 popular countries<\/strong>. Our busiest destinations include the United States, Cura\u00e7ao, Australia, and Canada. Current destinations include:<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>United States (states in the middle of the country are also accessible)<\/li>\n<li>Canada<\/li>\n<li>Cura\u00e7ao<\/li>\n<li>Aruba<\/li>\n<li>Congo<\/li>\n<li>Thailand<\/li>\n<li>Singapore<\/li>\n<li>Australia<\/li>\n<li>New Zealand<\/li>\n<li>South Africa<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div>\n<p>Return shipments <strong>back to the Netherlands<\/strong> are also possible. The same trusted partners that support us on the outbound journey also offer a seamless groupage service for your return relocation.<\/p>\n<p>The groupage container will depart once it is full. This can mean longer waiting times compared to a dedicated container. Transpack will keep you updated on availability, planning, and the expected departure window.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3>What does groupage cost?<\/h3>\n<div>\n<p>Groupage pricing varies depending on:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>destination<\/li>\n<li>volume (m\u00b3)<\/li>\n<li>selected services<\/li>\n<li>the season or month of departure<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you want to know what your groupage shipment would cost, request a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transpack.nl\/en\/verhuisofferte2-eng\/\"><strong>free, no\u2011obligation quote<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Groupage can be arranged in different ways:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Full service: <\/strong>Goods are professionally packed and unpacked at your home.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Transport service only: <\/strong>You pack and unpack yourself, we handle collection and delivery.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Warehouse delivery: <\/strong>You deliver packed goods to our warehouse, and we deliver them at destination.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Warehouse-to-warehouse: <\/strong>You deliver and collect goods at the warehouses.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Variations and combinations are always possible.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>Please note:<\/strong> countries such as the United States are large, and groupage does not cover every town. Contact a Transpack representative to check coverage in your desired area.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Safely sharing container space<\/h3>\n<div>We understand that sharing a container may raise questions. To guarantee safety and separation of goods, we take several precautions:<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>Partitioning the goods by means of wood and\/or plastic<\/li>\n<li>Drawing up packing lists and numbering the individual boxes<\/li>\n<li>Colour coding the boxes, if required<\/li>\n<li>Creating loading plans for our partners so they know where certain goods are located<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>How does Groupage work?<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li><strong><strong>Send a request: <\/strong><\/strong>Tell us your volume and destination via our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.transpack.nl\/en\/verhuisofferte2-eng\/\">quotation form<\/a>. We\u2019ll provide availability and pricing categories.<\/li>\n<li><strong><strong>Preparation: <\/strong><\/strong>We confirm your booking and explain the customs documents needed for both origin and destination.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Store your belongings temporarily:<\/strong> Your belongings will be stored free of charge in our warehouse in The Hague until the first possible sailing, unless you need extra storage time on your own request.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shipping your goods:<\/strong> We notify you once the container is full and share the sailing schedule.
