Shared Container

Save money on smaller shipments

A shared container is a service for smaller shipments to popular destinations.

Shared container provides a more economical service by consolidating your goods with other Crown customers into one shipping container. Our unique e-packing system with bar code labeling ensures that there is no mix-up of goods. You only pay for the space you use – this is a very cost effective container transport method.

Shared container is also more ecologically sustainable as recourses are shared.

 

How does it work?

You will be sharing a container with other Crown Relocations customers moving to similar international locations. By consolidating several customers into one shipping container, you pay only for the volume you need – far cheaper than airfreight or a direct LCL (less-than-container load service).
