8 Sole use container
Sole use container or shared load During the pre-move survey we will advise whether your effects will be shipped in their own container or as part of a shared load consignment. Most shipments are loaded into steel shipping containers. Sole use containers will normally be packed outside your home, sealed and transported directly to the docks for shipment. Alternatively, if your move is not big enough to fill a container we will transfer them to our consolidation warehouse where they will be stored safely until being loaded jointly with other loads travelling to the same destination. Should you wish to move your car along with your household effects, Britannia are able to offer this in either your own soleuse container or as part of a shared consignment. Items required urgently at the destination can be sent by air. Britannia will pack these in to airline approved cartons or cases. For smaller consignments to remote destinations, your effects can be case packed for shared loading. 9
