FAQ
How is air freight charged?
By chargeable weight: the greater of actual weight and volumetric weight (length × width × height in cm ÷ 6,000). Per-kg rates drop at higher weight breaks.
Which airports can my cargo leave from?
Most shipments depart Shenzhen or Hong Kong. We also book from Guangzhou, Shanghai, Beijing and other Chinese airports — whichever gives the best route and price.
How long does air freight to Europe take?
We have weekly flights to Germany, the UK, France and Turkey. Our duties-paid air lines to the EU (UPS delivery) and the UK (DPD delivery) usually take 8–12 days from the day after the cargo reaches our Shenzhen warehouse until the delivering carrier collects it; customs inspection, public holidays and flight delays are not included. The transit time for your shipment is confirmed with your quote.
Is there a minimum weight for your published rates?
Yes. Published air rates start from 22 kg chargeable weight to the USA, Canada and Australia, from 11 kg to New Zealand and from 10 kg (and 10 kg per carton) to Europe and the UK; the Europe and UK rail lines start from 21 kg, with at least 12 kg per carton. Express is priced per 0.5 kg, and per kg from 21 kg, so it suits smaller parcels.
Can lithium batteries go by air?
Often, with the right paperwork and packing: a UN38.3 test summary, an MSDS, correct labels and, under IATA rules, lithium-ion batteries shipped on their own, or (from 1 January 2026) packed with equipment, at no more than 30% state of charge. Acceptance differs by airline and express carrier, so send us the battery specifications and we'll confirm the route and price. More in our batteries, magnets and liquids guide.
