Shipping honey abroad
We send honey from the village to your family abroad, with pickup from your home. See how the jar is packed so that nothing leaks.
Thyme, pine or blossom: honey travels easily when the jar can neither open nor get knocked. We collect it from your home and deliver it to its destination. For other food, see sending food. If you are also sending olive oil, see olive oil shipping.
How do you pack honey for shipping?
- A tightly closed lidand, if possible, tape around the lid.
- A plastic bag that sealsaround each jar, so that nothing spills if it breaks.
- Bubble wrapseparately for each jar.
- A sturdy cardboard boxwith filling between the jars and a “fragile” label.

What do customers ask about shipping honey?
How do I pack jars of honey for shipping?
Each jar, with its lid tightly closed, goes into a plastic bag that seals, is then wrapped in bubble wrap and placed in a sturdy cardboard box with filling between the jars.
Can I send honey abroad?
Yes. Within the European Union no customs are needed. Outside the European Union each country has its own rules on food, so ask us before you pack.
Is a glass or a plastic container better?
A metal or plastic container with a screw lid stands up to knocks better. Glass travels at the sender’s own risk and needs each jar wrapped separately. Either way, the bag around the container stays.
How much does it cost to ship honey?
It depends on the weight, the dimensions, the route and the service. You see the exact amount in the cost calculator before you book.

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.

I want to thank Spourgitis Transport and especially Mrs. Stylianopoulou Eleni for her excellent cooperation, professionalism and her immediate response towards my order which was an urgent need. Appreciate it. Well done to everyone. (Utrecht,Netherlands)
Fast delivery (Austria to Greece) and great customer support
This is the 3rd time I am using Spourgitis for shipping goods abroad (USA). Very reliable, excellent pre & post service communication. Polite personnel, knowledgeable. Economic rates. Do not hesitate to try them highly recommended!
All done via their website and email, easy and efficient. I am really satisfied with the prices,the communication and the support. Moving from Germany to Greece has been faster than I even though.
Prompt responses and caring people. International shipment came sooner than I expected. Highly recommended!!
I used their service, the price is considerable for us, 13kg 44€ from Greece to Belgium. No one had to do anything, they picked up the package for my mom’s home and they brought it to my door in less days than expected. Very happy! Recommended!!!
