About Cargo & Shipping on Travo.ng.
How much does cargo shipping to Nigeria cost?
It depends on weight, volume, origin, mode (sea vs air) and duty. Sea is cheapest for bulky cargo; air suits urgent items. Send your cargo details for a quote with an estimated landed cost.
How long does shipping take?
Air is typically 3–7 days door to door; sea is 4–8 weeks depending on origin and clearance. We give you a realistic timeline before you book.
Do you handle customs clearance?
Yes — classification, duty estimation, documentation and clearing at Apapa, Tin Can or the airport, then delivery to your door.
Can you ship both personal and commercial cargo?
Yes, from a few boxes to full containers. Consolidation lets smaller shipments share space to cut cost.
