Spare-parts and chandlery deliveries to yachts
When a yacht is waiting on a part, the fastest route is often a van that is already heading to the port. Onshore connects chandlers, agents and engineers with carriers on the right road today.

Tips
Getting it right
- Lithium batteries, fuel, paints, solvents and gas cylinders are dangerous goods — only book them with a carrier who is qualified to carry them and declare them clearly.
- For airport pickups, include the air waybill number and the handling agent’s details.
- Declare the value of expensive components when you book.
Questions
FAQ
Can you collect from the airport?
Carriers can collect from airport cargo terminals if they agree to it. Include the air waybill number and the handling agent’s details in the booking notes, and make sure any customs clearance is complete.
Can you carry batteries, paint or gas?
Only with a carrier who is qualified for dangerous goods (ADR) and has accepted the job knowing what the goods are. Some items are prohibited altogether — see the list in our Terms.
How fast is it?
That depends on when a carrier is already making the run. Many Riviera routes run daily. For something urgent, post a quote request with your deadline and carriers will respond if they can meet it.
