Rolats ships cargo to Africa from Havering with free collection from your door in Romford, Hornchurch, Rainham, Upminster or anywhere across the RM1 to RM14 postcodes. Havering borders Dagenham, so our depot at 494 Gale Street is only minutes away — a very quick collection. Ship by air (£5.90/kg + £20 handling) or sea (from £70 per bag) to Nigeria, Ghana and across the continent. Door-to-door, all-in GBP, nothing to pay at the African end.

Your closest neighbour for shipping 

Havering sits right next to Barking & Dagenham — Rainham and Romford practically back onto our patch. Our depot at 494 Gale Street is only minutes away, which makes Havering one of the quickest boroughs for us to collect from.

From Romford Market to the quieter streets of Upminster and Hornchurch, we come to you and bring your cargo the short distance to the depot.

Suburban, and we're honest about it 

Havering is more suburban and outer-London than its inner-city neighbours, and it does not have the same dense African diaspora as, say, Newham or Hackney. We won't pretend otherwise.

What we do offer is unbeatable convenience: if you live anywhere in Havering and need to send goods to Africa — for family, business or a relocation — you are on the doorstep of a trusted, established forwarder.

What we can ship for you 

  • Barrels and boxes of food, clothing and personal items
  • Cars and vehicles by RoRo or container
  • Full and part removals for those moving abroad
  • Business shipments for local traders and firms

Book from Romford, Elm Park, Harold Hill or Gidea Park and we will handle the rest.

Straightforward, all-in prices 

Air freight is £5.90/kg plus £20 handling — quick for urgent or lighter loads. Sea cargo from £70 per bag suits barrels and bulk. Cars and containers are quoted per shipment.

Everything is priced all-in GBP, and there is nothing to pay when it lands in Africa. Clear from the start.

Established, authorised and trusted 

We are HMRC Customs Authorised and EORI registered (Companies House 06153914), have been trading since 2007, and hold a 4.7/5 Google rating.

We prepare Form M and SONCAP for Nigeria and CTN/ECTN for Ghana and West Africa, so your goods clear customs cleanly and arrive door-to-door.
