Looking for door-to-door shipping from the UK or USA to Nigeria? Whether you are sending family gifts, personal belongings or business stock, County Cargo can help you plan the journey from your supplier or home to the agreed destination in Nigeria.

Start with the full journey, not just the international flight. Confirm how the goods will reach our overseas warehouse, which shipping service suits them and how the recipient will receive or collect them in Nigeria.

Delivery Coverage & Arrangements

Doorstep delivery is available within Lagos, subject to the address and shipment. Outside Lagos, including Abuja and Kaduna, the standard arrangement is onward transport to an agreed collection point, not doorstep delivery. Confirm availability and local transport charges before booking.

Shipping from UK Towns and Cities to Nigeria

County Cargo’s Liverpool warehouse supports customers across the North West, including Manchester, Bolton, Preston and Warrington. Customers can send online purchases to the warehouse or arrange a drop-off after registering for their customer details. Explore our UK to Nigeria shipping service.

If you are arranging a shipment from St Helens, Wigan, London, Birmingham, Coventry, Leicester, Nottingham, Leeds, Sheffield, Luton or Milton Keynes, send us your postcode and parcel details. We can discuss how your goods can reach the UK warehouse and confirm any available collection arrangements.

Planning Tip: Before arranging a collection, ask about the price, parcel size limits and collection window. A request is not a confirmed collection until the arrangements have been agreed.

Shipping from US Towns and Cities to Nigeria

Shopping in America does not have to end at the checkout because a retailer does not deliver directly to Nigeria. Register for a County Cargo account and use the US shipping address supplied to you for eligible purchases. Read about our US to Nigeria shipping service.

For purchases from sellers in Dallas, Irving and Houston in Texas, Atlanta in Georgia, New York City, Newark in New Jersey, Baltimore in Maryland, Chicago in Illinois or Los Angeles in California, ask the seller to confirm delivery to your County Cargo US address.

Please note: These city examples do not mean County Cargo has a branch or collection team in each location. Confirm the domestic delivery arrangement with your seller and retain every tracking number.

Key Destinations in Nigeria

UK and USA to Lagos Shipping: Lagos State

Sending a parcel to Ikeja, Lekki, Yaba, Surulere, Ikorodu or another part of Lagos State? Give us the full address and recipient’s telephone number when requesting a quote.

  • The team will confirm whether doorstep delivery is suitable for the location and parcel.
  • Ask whether local delivery is included in the quoted amount or payable separately.
  • For a business delivery, explain any access requirements and provide the name of the person authorised to receive the goods.

UK and USA to Abuja Shipping: Federal Capital Territory (FCT)

Abuja is in the Federal Capital Territory, or FCT, rather than a state. If your recipient is in Wuse, Garki, Maitama, Kubwa, Lugbe or Gwarinpa, include that area in your enquiry.

  • Confirm collection point: Confirm the agreed collection point before shipping. A recipient’s home address helps identify the destination, but it does not automatically turn the booking into a home-delivery service.
  • Allow for onward movement and collection arrangements after the cargo reaches Nigeria, particularly when sending goods for an event or business deadline.

UK and USA to Kaduna Shipping: Kaduna State

For cargo intended for Kaduna city, Zaria, Kafanchan or another location in Kaduna State, provide the exact destination before booking. Ask the team to confirm available onward transport, the collection point and applicable charges.

  • Make sure the recipient can reach the agreed collection location in Kaduna.
  • International arrival and local availability may not happen on the same day.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does shipping from the UK or USA to Nigeria cost?

The quote depends on the route, goods, chargeable weight, dimensions and service selected. Give the team your destination town as well as the state, and ask for a breakdown of any additional charges. See County Cargo's shipping FAQs.

How long will my shipment take?

Request a current estimate for your specific service and destination. Confirm whether it starts at collection, warehouse receipt or international departure, and whether it includes onward transport in Nigeria. Delivery estimates are not guaranteed dates. Read our shipping terms and guidance.

Can I shop online and send purchases to County Cargo?

Yes. Use the UK or US address provided through your County Cargo account, follow the addressing instructions and keep the seller’s tracking information. Check that each item is accepted for shipping before buying it.

Is doorstep delivery available in every Nigerian state?

No. Doorstep delivery is available within Lagos where confirmed. For Abuja, Kaduna and other destinations outside Lagos, the standard arrangement is collection at an agreed point. Confirm this before paying for your shipment.
