Cargo to Nigeria from Basildon

Cargo to Nigeria collected across Basildon — Pitsea, Laindon, Vange, Billericay and Wickford.

The borough of Basildon — Basildon town, Pitsea, Laindon, Billericay and Wickford — has 1,913 Nigeria-born residents, the second largest Nigerian community in Essex after Thurrock. We collect across the borough and ship to our Lagos office, or on to any of the 36 states.

Basildon was built as a New Town after the war to rehouse families from east London, and it has kept that connection: a lot of its Nigerian residents came out along the A13 and the c2c line from Barking, Dagenham and Newham.

That same road makes it straightforward for us. We collect across the whole borough — Basildon, Pitsea, Laindon, Vange, Billericay and Wickford — barrels, boxes, parcels and vehicles, by air or sea.

Population figures on this page are from the ONS 2021 Census (country of birth: Nigeria).
