FAQ

What other destinations can you ship to?

On top of Guernsey, we ship to Jersey, Alderney, Sark and Herm, as well as the Isle of Wight, the Isle of Man and London. Plus, we can facilitate requests to deliver elsewhere.

Do you offer pallet shipping to Guernsey?
Absolutely, we provide a specialist pallet delivery service to Guernsey, designed specifically for the island’s unique road restrictions. Our custom-built vehicles ensure full access across the island, and we adapt pallet configurations as needed to suit local conditions. We can only fit three pallets head-to-toe on our vehicles, but instead we can reconfigure your goods to suit Guernsey’s infrastructure restrictions. It’s a reliable, fully tracked solution for time-sensitive or high-value goods.
Is Guernsey in the UK?

How big is Guernsey?

Guernsey is roughly 62 km2 or 39 square miles.

How much does it cost to ship a pallet or a parcel to Guernsey?

Breakwells transported my vintage Vespa scooter from Guernsey to the U.K. I was blown away by the support Steve provided for me prior to shipment. He was extremely courteous, efficient and kind and I would thoroughly recommend the Company’s services in the future. Many thanks to all who helped.
