Q1: What types of goods can be shipped from China to Australia by sea?
A: Senghor Logistics can handle a wide variety of goods, including general cargo, machinery, electronics, and textiles. However, some items may be restricted or require special treatment, for example, wooden furniture needs to be fumigated before it can be imported into Australia.
Q2: How much does sea freight from China to Australia cost?
A: Sea freight costs depend on factors such as:
- Container type (20ft/40ft/40ft HC) and load type (FCL vs. LCL)
- Departure/arrival port pairs (major ports are more cost-effective than regional ones)
- Seasonal demand (peak seasons like pre-Christmas or Chinese New Year may lead to rate surcharges)
- Additional services (customs clearance, door-to-door delivery, cargo insurance, fumigation for wooden packaging)
- Surcharges (bunker adjustment factor, port congestion surcharge, terminal handling charges)
We provide competitive rates and transparent quotations with no hidden fees. Contact us for a customized shipping solution.
Q3: What documents are required for shipping cargo from China to Australia?
A: Typically required documents include a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and certificate of origin. For Australian customs clearance, you may also need certain specific declaration documents (e.g., wooden packaging, controlled goods). Our team will guide you through completing all the necessary documentation for your specific shipment.
Q4: Can you provide door-to-door sea freight services to Australia?
A: Of course, this is exactly what Senghor Logistics excels at. We provide door-to-door ocean freight services from China to Australia, including factory pickup, export clearance, ocean freight, import clearance, and final delivery to your warehouse or company address.
Q5: How can I track my shipment?

Senghor Logistics has dedicated personnel to follow up and update your cargo status in real time, so you can rest assured.
