The borough that holds Heathrow
Hillingdon is west London's largest borough by area and home to Heathrow Airport itself. Hayes is its most diverse district, with African and international families alongside a strong South Asian presence, while Uxbridge, Ruislip and West Drayton are more suburban.
That mix of homes and business makes Hillingdon a natural fit for both personal barrels and commercial air cargo to Africa.
Free collection, no matter the distance
Dagenham (RM9) sits on the opposite, eastern side of London, so Hillingdon is a long way west — and the collection is entirely free and built around you.
- Free pickup across UB3, UB4, UB7, UB8, UB9, UB10 and UB11
- Booked to suit your schedule
- We handle the drive back to our Dagenham depot
No need to leave Hayes or Uxbridge.
A natural home for air freight
With Heathrow on your doorstep, air freight — £5.90/kg plus £20 handling — is a strong option for urgent and business shipments from Hillingdon.
For everyday sending, sea cargo from £70 per bag handles provisions, furniture and bulk goods economically. Cars and containers are quoted per shipment, all-in GBP.
