China-Australia Large Furniture Sea Freight
Moving large furniture from China to Australia requires specialized logistics. Our sea freight service is tailored for bulky items like sofas, wardrobes, dining tables, and antique cabinets, ensuring safe, cost-effective, and hassle-free delivery. Below is a detailed overview of our service features and key benefits.
Service Details
Door-to-Door (DDU/DDP) or Port-to-Port
We offer flexible options:
Door-to-Door: Pickup from your supplier in China (e.g., Guangzhou, Shanghai, Qingdao) and delivery to your Australian address (Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, etc.). Includes customs clearance and last-mile delivery.
Port-to-Port: You arrange local pickup/delivery; we handle sea freight and customs at both ends.
01
LCL & FCL Shipping
Less than Container Load (LCL): Ideal for smaller shipments (1–13 cubic meters). Your furniture shares a container with other goods, lowering costs.
Full Container Load (FCL): For volumes >15 m³. Choose 20ft or 40ft containers – perfect for entire household moves or bulk orders.
02
Professional Packing & Crating
We use export-grade materials: bubble wrap, corner protectors, stretch film, and custom wooden crates for fragile or high-value items. All packaging complies with Australian biosecurity (ISPM-15 heat-treated wood) to avoid fumigation delays.
03
Customs Clearance & GST Handling
Our Australian team pre-clears your goods using your invoice and packing list. We calculate and pay applicable duties (5% for most furniture) and GST (10%) on your behalf under DDP terms, so you receive the goods without hidden fees.
04
Tracking & Insurance
Real-time tracking from warehouse to delivery. Comprehensive marine insurance (0.5–1% of cargo value) covers damage, loss, or theft – highly recommended for high-end furniture.
05
Key Advantages of Choosing Our Service
Sea freight is the most economical mode for large/heavy items. For example, shipping a 3-seat sofa (1.5 m³) costs around AUD $400–600 via LCL, compared to >$2,000 by air.
Unlike couriers that cap dimensions, we handle extra-large pieces: 4-meter-long dining tables, solid wood bed frames, marble countertops, or even entire kitchen cabinets – no extra surcharges for oversize.
- Anti-tilt bracing for tall wardrobes
- Humidity-controlled storage (free for 7 days) to prevent wood warping
- White-glove unpacking & assembly available (optional) in Australia
- East coast (Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane): 18–22 days from China main ports
- West coast (Perth): 23–28 days
- Adelaide/Darwin: add 3–5 days via transshipment
- Expedited service (14–18 days) available at 20% premium.
We pre-inspect all wooden items for bark, insects, and soil – common reasons for Australian border rejection. If fumigation is required, we arrange it locally (AUD $150–300 per consignment) without disrupting your delivery schedule.
Our quote includes:
- China export customs clearance
- Ocean freight & BAF (bunker adjustment factor)
- Australian import customs entry
