What do customers ask about shipping carpets?
How do I pack a carpet for shipping?
Roll it tightly around a tube or into a roll, with the top side facing inwards, and wrap it in bubble wrap. Do not fold it, because folding leaves permanent creases.
How is the carpet protected from moisture?
Once rolled, it goes into a plastic bag or film that seals well, and the whole roll into strong packaging. That way water and damp on the journey do not affect it.
Can I send a handmade rug?
Yes. For valuable carpets, extra cover is available on shipments abroad. Tell us the value when you book the shipment.
How much does carpet shipping cost?
It depends on the weight, the dimensions, the route and the service. You see the exact amount in the cost calculator before you book.
Do you collect a carpet from my home?
Yes. We collect from your address, in any city, every day. All shipments abroad go through our two distribution centres, in Athens and Thessaloniki, and leave from there by road or by air for every country. Shipments by sea leave from the Athens distribution centre, through the port of Piraeus.
How is volumetric weight calculated?
Multiply length × width × height in centimetres and divide by 5,000. You are charged the greater of the actual weight and the volumetric weight. That is why a box sized to its contents costs less.
Can I insure a carpet shipped abroad?
Every shipment abroad has basic insurance, and for valuable items extra cover is available. Tell us the value when you book the shipment.
