TV shipping calculator

Select a size and condition, enter the declared value for a new TV, and choose whether to include insurance. The estimate includes an indicative VAT calculation.

Condition

An invoice is required when arranging shipment of a new TV.

Screen breakage is generally excluded; standard insurance may not cover full replacement. Claims are subject to carrier terms. Confirm cover with ShipLite before booking.

Prices may change without notice. This calculator provides an indicative estimate only. ShipLite will confirm the current price, acceptance and booking details before you send your TV.

TV bookings must be arranged directly with ShipLite. Contact us on WhatsApp; do not use the standard online parcel booking for a television.

Packing & handling

  • One unit per shipment is recommended. Avoid commercial quantities. Keep the TV upright and do not stack.

Not accepted by air

  • TVs 56 inches and above: ask about sea cargo with special handling.
  • CRT televisions, damaged or unsafe units, and units containing hazardous liquids.
