Delivery and collection
expand Can the day and time for delivery / collection/redelivery be specified? 
Yes the day for delivery,collection and redelivery can be specified. If the collection, delivery or redelivery address is in a city serviced by our own Seven Seas Worldwide drivers you will receive a SMS message the evening prior to your collection , delivery or redelivery indicating the time-slot our driver will be with you.This is an estimated time and depends on traffic conditions. The driver is allocated 10 minutes for your delivery, collection or redelivery. Should you not receive a SMS message you can use your online link which will be emailed to you when you place your order to access your personal order details and view the time allocared. Alternatively you can call us before 6.00pm (18.00 hours).
 
Please note that if the delivery, collection or redelivery is in a city serviced by one of our agents we are unable to give you a time-slot.You do not need to be available to receive our empty packing cartons as long as you provide us with information about a safe place where they can be left, i.e. in a shed or with a neighbour etc. When your packed excess baggage is collected, you or a trusted friend or relative must be present. You must inform us if you leave it with someone else for collection. When we redeliver your excess baggage at the final address, you or your nominee has to be available to receive the shipment. 
expand If I order my empty cartons today, when can they be delivered? 
In some regions we can deliver the cartons the next day (except Sundays) if you order them before 14.00. In other regions it may take up to three working days.
expand What happens if I exceed the maximum weight per item? 
You can avoid exceeding the maximum weight of 30 Kg / 40 kg per carton by avoiding heavy items, such as books, photo albums, CD’s and DVD’s as these quickly accumulate weight. If you wish to send a lot of heavy items, please use a Standard Carton (Book Box) as that is stronger and holds proportionally more weight than a Large Carton (T-Chest). All cartons and items are weighed on arrival at the Seven Seas Worldwide depot ,should one of your cartons or items exceed the maximum weight per item, you will be charged accordingly. So, please ensure you check the weight of your items if you can; most bathroom scales can be used.
Our packing cartons and packing material
expand Can I use my own cartons? 
Yes of course you can pack your things into your own Suitcases or boxes. Remember our boxes are specifically designed for storage and shipping so are stronger than regular cardboard boxes so will keep your belongings safe and secure. If you want to use your own items just tell us the dimensions (height, width and depth in cm) and we will provide a quote.
expand Do you charge for empty boxes ? 
No, there is no charge for our boxes. We know it’s difficult to estimate how many boxes you’ll need to pack all of your stuff so we advise to order extra boxes. Any boxes that you do not use can be returned to our driver at collection.  Seven Seas Worldwide will require a non-refundable deposit when making your booking but this is not an extra charge do is deducted from your final invoice amount.
expand Do you provide any packing material? 
Yes we provide FREE packing material (bubble wrap, tape and marker pens) that is specifically designed for securing your boxes whether storing or shipping internationally.  Your packing material will be delivered to you at the same time as your boxes.
expand How long can I keep the boxes ? 
As long as you want! There is no rush to return your boxes but we would advise you not to leave it until the last minute and take your time packing your boxes.
Transport insurance options
expand Why would I consider insuring my excess baggage shipment and what type of insurance do you offer? 
Insuring your excess baggage gives you peace of mind. After all, these are your personal effects and are therefore important to you otherwise you would not send or store them.
 
Total Loss Insurance
Seven Seas Worldwide automatically provides Total Loss Insurance cover of £100.00 or equivalent in country of origin currency for each carton, suitcase, holdall, backpack and other individual packed items, Total Loss Insurance will incur an additional charge. It is company policy to recommend this minimal insurance cover but you do have the option to opt out if you do not wish this insurance cover.
 
All Risk Insurance
The Insurance Premium payable for cover is calculated as 5% of the ‘replacement value’ of the inventoried items. It includes the total loss of the entire shipment, theft of items from the shipment and water damage to the consignment. ‘Replacement value’ equals the value it would cost to repurchase lost items.PLEASE NOTE: As with all insurance there is an ‘insurance excess liability’ amount whereby the customer is liable for an initial proportionate amount of the claim being registered.In this instance the ‘excess liability’ for insurance placed with Aviva is currently based upon a UK Sterling amount of £50.00 (fifty pounds) or the equivalence in local currency.All claims are subject to the standard Insurance Terms & Conditions. There is an excess payment on any single claim.
