Local Shipping & Cargo Hub
One Benin City company. Every Nigerian shipping route.
Grid Express is a local shipping and cargo company headquartered in Benin City. From our hub on Textile Mill Road, off the Uselu axis, we move cargo by road — from a single carton to a full truckload. Whether you're an individual sending goods to a relative in Lagos, a trader shipping stock to Onitsha, or a manufacturer moving building materials to Abuja, we handle the pickup, loading, haulage and delivery.
We operate a full fleet of vehicles — bikes, vans, pickups, 7-tonne trucks, 15-tonne trucks, 20-tonne trucks and articulated vehicles — so we can match the right vehicle to your cargo. That means you don't pay for more truck than you need, and you don't risk your cargo travelling on a vehicle too small for it.
We also handle the less glamorous parts of local shipping: packing, crating, weighing, loading, offloading, cargo consolidation and documentation. You don't need to visit a park or hire a separate loader. Send us the cargo and the destination city, and we'll take it from there.
01 — What We Ship Locally
From a single carton to a full truckload.
Our local shipping services cover almost every legal, non-hazardous cargo type — personal, commercial or industrial. If you're not sure whether your goods can be shipped, just ask before you book.
Parcels & Personal Effects
Clothing, shoes, household items, books, cosmetics, gifts and general personal effects shipped from Benin City to any Nigerian city or state.
Commercial Cargo & Business Stock
Retail goods, wholesale orders, spare parts, machinery, raw materials and manufactured products — packed, loaded and shipped by road to any Nigerian destination.
Full Truck Loads & Part Loads
Full-truck-load (FTL) for large cargo or part-load (LTL) with cargo consolidation when you don't have enough to fill a truck. You pay only for the space you use.
Building Materials & Industrial Goods
Tiles, cement, iron rods, roofing sheets, pipes, fittings, industrial machinery and construction materials shipped by road haulage to any destination.

Packaged food, dried produce, palm oil, garri, spices and non-perishable agricultural goods shipped from Benin City to markets and distributors across Nigeria.
02 — How We Price
What determines the cost of local shipping from Benin City?
Every local shipment is priced individually because every shipment is different. Here are the four things that determine your rate. Message us and we'll give you an exact figure before your cargo leaves Benin City.
Destination & Distance
Shipping within Benin City costs less than shipping to Lagos or Abuja. The destination city, distance and route all affect the local shipping rate.
Weight & Volume
Heavier and bulkier cargo requires a bigger vehicle and costs more. Part-load shipping lets you share truck space with other cargo, reducing your cost.
Vehicle Type & Load
Bike, van, pickup, 7-tonne, 15-tonne, 20-tonne truck or articulated vehicle — the vehicle you need determines the rate. We match the right vehicle to your cargo.
Extras & Frequency
Packing, crating, loading, offloading, insurance and door-to-door delivery affect the final cost. Business accounts with regular shipments get discounted rates.
