Air Freight Services

Air Freight Services can be more cost-effective for smaller shipments, especially when the price difference between air and sea freight narrows. While large shipments are typically cheaper to send by sea, air freight offers the major advantage of speed, which can be a crucial deciding factor, even if the cost is higher. Depending on the urgency and size of your shipment, air freight could provide the best solution.

“Fly it, don’t float it – when speed matters, air freight delivers in days, not months!”

Sea shipments typically take around a month to arrive, while air shipments can be delivered in as little as 3 days. Air carriers determine charges based on either volumetric weight or actual weight, depending on which is more expensive. If the volumetric weight exceeds the actual weight, the volumetric weight is used as the chargeable weight.

At Freight Factory, we offer door-to-door service, including the transportation and shipping of hazardous goods. Our services also cover packaging with appropriate labels and signs, customs clearance, forwarding, and handling all necessary documentation for customs and storage.

Testimonials

Well, I’m finally reunited with my Landcruiser. A long time coming. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you once again for your service and professionalism in this undertaking. Even with a hiccup (Hapag Lloyd) and the time of year (Christmas shutdown) you were on top of things to have problems sorted in a timely manner. I would not hesitate to use your service again or recommend your service to another fellow overlander. Those words come with complete sincerity. In saying these words, I also realize that not every client can be easily satisfied. However, it’s the “can do” attitude that permeates Freight factory. The willingness to try and, putting the customer first. I may not own a Ferrari or a Jaguar coupe but still, my vehicle is important to me no matter the cost. Thank you, Al Frewin Thank you.

Being a car collector in Cape Town, I've imported many vehicles over the years and always had to fly up to Durban hoping to retrieve my vehicles safely, without running into all the hidden issues, only to discover after paying huge sums, my pride and joy was left outside and been burgled. That's when I've discovered Freight Factory right on my doorstep! Thereafter, it was an easy, smooth transaction - the experts got all the required paperwork in order in no time and my car was on its way, without a worry, arriving safe and secure! They offered secure indoor storage until I was ready to collect - what a pleasure! I will definitely use them again! Many Thanks for your expert service!

I have used “Freight Factory” and in particular Lorraine to successfully take charge of the shipping & importation of my delicate C-Type Jaguar project. This consisted of arranging and advising of the paperwork required as well as following up with local authorities and the handling of the UK transport to the port, containerisation, shipping, clearing and unloading in CT. I highly recommend the services of “Freight Factory” for any similar requirements.
