How It Works — Houston to Ghana

Houston is a major Gulf Coast gateway, which gives your shipment flexible routing. Barrels and heavy goods move by ocean, while urgent electronics and documents fly air — we help you pick the right option and arrange pickup or drop-off across the metro.

Houston Shipping FAQ

Do you serve all of the Houston metro?

Yes. We coordinate Ghana-bound shipments from across Greater Houston — including SW Houston and Alief, Sugar Land, Missouri City, Katy, Pearland, Spring, and The Woodlands. Pickup can be arranged, or you can drop off at our designated consolidation point.

How does Houston to Ghana ocean freight work?

You pack your barrels and we consolidate Houston-area shipments for ocean export. Goods arrive at Tema Port near Accra in roughly 28–35 days from cutoff, fully customs-cleared on the Ghana side.

Can I ship a car from Houston to Ghana?

Yes — vehicle shipping from Houston to Tema is one of our specialties. Rates depend on the vehicle size and whether it ships RoRo or in a container. Contact us with the make, model, and year for an exact quote.

Can my family receive the shipment in Kumasi, not Accra?

Absolutely. Ocean freight arrives at Tema Port and air at Kotoka Airport in Accra. From there, recipients can arrange onward transport to Kumasi, Tamale, Cape Coast, or anywhere in Ghana.
