Air freight on this route is a fixed-promise 21 working days at £4/kg, while sea freight LCL consolidates from our Wembley warehouse and delivers in a fixed 45 working days at £2.5/kg — up to 37.5% cheaper than air freight on the per-kg rate.

Door delivery in Lucknow (population ~3,382,000) covers Hazratganj, Gomti Nagar, Aliganj, Indira Nagar, Aminabad and every suburb inside the 226001-226031 pincode range, with SMS alerts on Indian customs clearance and final-mile dispatch. Our Birmingham (population ~1,144,900) team handles enquiries in Punjabi, Hindi, Gujarati, which makes this corridor a popular pick for the second largest indian community in uk sending family parcels, traditional clothing and household goods to Uttar Pradesh. Handsworth and Soho Road are major cultural hubs. Lucknow is city of Nawabs, known for tehzeeb (etiquette) and cuisine, so book 3-4 weeks ahead of Diwali and Eid for guaranteed seasonal delivery; Lucknow is served via consolidated final-mile, so the fixed 21-working-day air promise applies — counted from the next working day after payment received. Quoted prices are all-inclusive: UK collection, export documentation, Birmingham (BHX) or Felixstowe handover, Indian customs clearance, all import duties, GST/IGST and last-mile delivery to Lucknow are bundled into the per-kilogram rate. A deposit of £50 or £10 per box (whichever is higher) is required before pickup is scheduled.
