Thornton Heath is home to one of South London's strongest Ghanaian communities, and Rolats ships here every week. We collect free across CR7 — the High Street, Thornton Heath Pond, Brigstock Road and Parchmore Road. Your cargo comes to our Dagenham depot, 494 Gale Street, RM9 4NU, then flies air at £5.90/kg plus £20 handling to Kotoka in days, or sails from £70 per bag via the Port of Tema. We raise the CTN before sailing and deliver door-to-door across Ghana — all-in GBP, nothing to pay in Ghana.
The heart of Ghanaian Thornton Heath
From the African grocers on Brigstock Road to the churches around Parchmore Road, Thornton Heath is one of the most Ghanaian corners of London. When it is time to send a barrel home or ship goods for a wedding or funeral in Ghana, Rolats is the forwarder your neighbours already trust. We speak your language on cargo — barrels, bags, cars and containers.
Free door collection across CR7
There is no need to wrestle barrels onto the tram or drive them to East London. We collect free from all over Thornton Heath — the High Street, the streets around the Pond, and homes near Thornton Heath station. Book online and our driver comes to you. It is a long run to Dagenham from CR7, so we handle the journey.
Fast air freight to Accra
When something has to be in Ghana quickly — cash-crop documents, medicine, electronics or a special gift — air freight is £5.90 per kilo plus £20 handling and lands at Kotoka International within days. It is the fastest lane from Thornton Heath to your family in Accra.
Sea freight from £70 per bag
For the big shipments — barrels of gari, shito, palm oil and dried fish, and Ghana Must Go bags packed with clothes and provisions — sea freight from £70 per bag is the value option. Cargo sails to the Port of Tema and arrives in about four to six weeks, then door-to-door to Kumasi, Takoradi or your home town.
Reliable, all-in and customs-cleared
Rolats has moved cargo from London to Ghana since 2007, HMRC Customs Authorised, EORI registered and rated 4.7/5. We raise the CTN before your cargo sails and clear it through ICUMS. Prices are all-in GBP and settled here in Thornton Heath — your relatives in Ghana pay nothing when the goods arrive.
