Shanghai, China to Cape Town
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had a great experience with Econo Trans. They assisted with transporting my belongings from my Shanghai shipment that arrived in Durban and was then moved down to Cape Town. The entire process was handled professionally and efficiently. A special thank you to Nicole, who coordinated everything so well. She was organised, helpful, and made sure everything went smoothly from start to finish. Moving internationally can be stressful, but Econo Trans made the process much easier. I really appreciate the excellent service and would highly recommend them.

Transportation of household goods in container via sea
10 out of 10 Thank You! What a hassle free transportation of household items per container from South Africa to Western Australia. Through customs delivered at home. I'd like to single out Noz. If it wasn't for her I'd have ended up in a mental institution. She is the friendliest, most efficient human being. I pray Econo Trans sees her value. Thank you once again.

THE BEST OF THE BEST EXCELLENT SERVICE
Dear Adrian and Nicole I am writing to express my sincere gratitude for the best of the best service I have ever had with a shipping company. I recently received my container on a timely manner from the import from Pretoria. Eco Trans went out and beyond to make sure that my items were delivered to the storage immediately. The professionalism and care shown by your team made my shipping experience seamless and stress-free. Thank you once again for going above and beyond to receive my overflow that was left behind. I will make sure I refer you to all of my friends and family because that's the way you made me feel like I'm part of the Eco Trans family. Sincerely Melody Taylor
