How much does delivery cost in Ibadan?
There is no fixed city-wide price list. Couriers price by distance, weight, urgency and vehicle. The figures below come from published 2025 and 2026 price guides and give a realistic starting range.
| Delivery type | Published price range (₦) | Source and date |
|---|---|---|
| Small parcel (0–2 kg) within the same state, courier | 3,000 – 5,000 (24–48 hours) | GIG Logistics price guide, June 2026 |
| Small parcel (0–2 kg) Lagos to Abuja, courier | 6,000 – 9,000 | GIG Logistics price guide, June 2026 |
| Bike delivery, Lagos to Oyo State | 4,000 – 9,000 | VisCorner survey, September 2025 |
| Bike delivery within the same area of a city | Up to 3,000 | VisCorner survey, September 2025 (Lagos and Abuja) |

The GIG guide also advises budgeting a 10–25% buffer, because the price at the counter can change after re-weighing and packaging. The same logic applies to any courier: describe your item accurately to avoid surprises.
What pushes the price up
- Distance and traffic. A run from Ojoo to Challenge costs more than a short hop within Bodija, and rush-hour traffic on Iwo Road or Ring Road adds time.
- Size and weight. Anything that will not fit in a rider’s box needs a car, van or truck.
- Urgency. Express or same-hour delivery costs more than next-day.
- Fuel. Petrol reached about ₦1,360–₦1,395 per litre at major stations in Lagos and Ogun on 12 September 2026 (Legit.ng), and riders and hauliers pass this on.
- Extras. Loading help, waiting time, cash collection and insurance add to the fee.
Haulage and trucking from Ibadan
Ibadan sits at the start of the main road north to Ilorin, Ogbomoso and beyond, and is linked to the Lagos ports by the Lagos–Ibadan Expressway. That makes it a natural base for distributors, farms and builders who move full loads. Travo’s haulage service covers vans for small loads through to trucks and trailers for bulk goods. For port work, read our guide to container transport from Apapa and Tin Can.
When you request a truck, give the pickup and drop-off addresses, the type of goods, the approximate weight or number of bags or cartons, and whether you need loaders. Haulage is always quoted per job, because road condition, tolls, waiting time at the port and the return trip all affect the price.
How to book a delivery or truck in Ibadan with Travo
- Open the Travo booking form for the service you need (parcel, haulage or driver) or message us on WhatsApp.
- Enter the pickup address in Ibadan and the destination, with a landmark and a phone number for each end.
- Describe the item: what it is, its size and weight, and whether it is fragile.
- Choose the timing: now, later today or a scheduled date.
- Review the quote and pay. Keep the booking reference.
- Track the job and confirm delivery with the receiver.
How to choose a reliable logistics company in Ibadan
- Ask for a written quote that shows the total, including loading, waiting and return trips.
- Check that the rider or driver’s name, phone number and plate number are shared before pickup.
- Ask how damaged or lost items are handled, and whether goods-in-transit insurance is available for valuable loads.
- Pay through a traceable channel and avoid sending money to personal accounts you have not verified.
- For regular deliveries, agree a business rate and a daily pickup time.
Safety tips for sending goods
- Pack items firmly and label them with the receiver’s name and phone number.
- Photograph the item and the packaging before handover.
- Do not send cash, jewellery or documents you cannot replace by an ordinary rider.
- Tell the receiver to check the package before signing, and report problems at once.
- Be wary of anyone asking you to pay extra fees by transfer after pickup; confirm with the company first.
