Our shipping services from Germany to Cameroon
From a single box to a 40 foot container, we match the solution to your volume. One team follows your freight from our Duisburg depot until you collect it in Douala.
Full container, 20 or 40 foot
This is the option for house moves, traders and importers with volume. The container is for your goods only: nothing is mixed with another customer’s freight.
What we handle
- Supply of a 20 or 40 foot container
- Receipt and storage of your goods in our Duisburg depot
- Suitable packing: protection, bracing and insulation for goods that are sensitive to temperature changes, such as wine
- Stuffing, sealing and transport to the port
- Customs clearance and release at destination
Good to know: on request, our team packs your freight to an optimal standard before loading, so that it is protected during the crossing.
Vehicle transport
Saloon, SUV or van: we load your vehicle into the container and move it to the port. We have the right equipment for this type of operation, so you get a simple turnkey service.
What we handle
- Loading and securing the vehicle in the container
- Transport to the port and loading on board
- Customs clearance on arrival and handover in Douala
Personal belongings on board: you may load personal goods in the vehicle or in the container. You must then provide a valued inventory: without that document, your belongings may be refused at collection.
Good to know: customs duties are not included in the vehicle rate. They are calculated according to the value and type of the vehicle.
Sea groupage
Ideal for limited quantities, a partial move, an export business or a one-off need: sea groupage is the middle ground between air freight and a full container, in both cost and flexibility.
How the rate is calculated
- The price is based on cubic metres, i.e. the space your goods occupy
- Weight is taken into account, but it is secondary
- The minimum billable volume is 1 m³
Who is it for? Individuals sending a few boxes, traders restocking, and families shipping furniture without filling a whole container.
Boxes, bags and per-item shipping
No volume to measure? We also price per item: standard-size boxes, bags, fridges, cookers, washing machines, sofas, armchairs, televisions, tiles, microwaves, computers, drums and generators.
- The full rate card is published, from a single box to a container
- For large furniture (wardrobes, dining sets), the rate is quoted individually
Good to know: customs clearance is included in these rates. New or high-value goods are priced according to their declared value.

Frequently asked questions
Can I combine a vehicle and boxes in one shipment?
Yes. A container can carry a vehicle plus personal belongings, provided you supply a valued inventory of those belongings.
What happens if my goods are fragile?
Tell us at quote stage. We pack the freight to protect it, including from temperature changes for sensitive goods.
Do you offer air freight?
Yes, on request, for urgent or low-volume shipments. Rates and transit times are confirmed in the quote.
Can I ship from another German city?
Yes. You can drop your boxes at a partner point or ask for home collection; a van brings them to our Duisburg depot.
