The conversation that starts everything
Every shipment begins with a conversation. You reach out by WhatsApp, phone, or email and tell us what you're shipping, where from, and when. There are no forms to fill, no jargon, no hidden fees to discover later.
Within 4 hours on business days, you'll have a clear, all-inclusive quote. One number. Everything in it.

We go to your goods, wherever they are in India
Whether your goods are at a factory in Rajasthan, a market in Surat, a family home in Kerala, or spread across multiple suppliers, we collect them. Our network of vetted drivers and consolidation agents covers the whole subcontinent.
If you need help sourcing products, our team can also help identify reputable Indian suppliers for your specific category, verified, vetted, and ready to work.

7 layers of care before anything is sealed
At our consolidation warehouse, every item is photographed, inventoried, and wrapped using our 7-layer protection system. Fragile items receive custom internal bracing. Antiques and heirlooms are handled by specialists.
For irreplaceable items like mandirs, marble sculptures, and heirloom furniture, we build a custom timber crate around the item. See our Mandir shipping guide →

22.84°N, 69.70°E. Your goods begin their ocean voyage.
Mundra Port in Gujarat, India's largest container port, is where your shipment meets the sea. Goods are professionally loaded into a sealed container, with your cargo tracked against the full container manifest.
For smaller shipments, we consolidate (LCL) with other compatible cargo. For full containers (FCL), your goods are the only ones inside.

Bearing 136° SE. Your shipment is on the water.
5,800 nautical miles. Bearing 136° southeast. Your shipment crosses the Indian Ocean while you get on with your life in Australia. We track every vessel, every port call, every update.
You'll receive WhatsApp updates at every major milestone: vessel departure, mid-voyage check-in, arrival at Port Botany, and customs clearance notification.
Stage 06
06 / 06
33.95°S, 151.19°E. The journey ends at your door.
Port Botany, Sydney. Your container is unloaded, cleared through Australian Border Force, and released to our delivery partner. We handle the paperwork: duty calculation, biosecurity compliance, and import declarations. All of it.
Last-mile delivery to your home or warehouse. White-glove unpacking available on request. You sign. You unbox. It's yours again.
Family mandirs. Marble murtis. Antique furniture. Heirlooms that carry memory, not just weight. For items that matter beyond their dollar value, we design custom timber crates, specialist packing, and white-glove handling at every stage.
Real communication, real updates
We update you at every milestone. No portals to log into, no tracking numbers to chase. Just a message from us, exactly when something happens.
