Laborie, on the south coast near Vieux Fort, is one of St Lucia's most loved and best-preserved villages, a quiet fishing community set on a calm, palm-fringed bay. It has kept its traditional Creole character and an unhurried, authentic feel, with the Morne Le Blanc viewpoint above the village and the historic Balenbouche Estate, a 200-year-old former sugar plantation, just along the coast. It's a place of deep local roots and strong ties to family who have moved away, which makes it firmly barrel and returning-nationals country.
Whether it's a single barrel for relatives or a whole household coming home, the same free service connects you with one vetted partner who packs, ships and clears it, then delivers to your Laborie address.
Barrels and shared containers are the everyday choices, with a full container for a home move.
Clothes, food and gifts in a barrel, from around £80.
Shared or full 20ft and 40ft for a large load or a home.
Coming home for good? Bring effects and a vehicle in under the concession.

Goods for Laborie clear at Port Castries, or sometimes at the nearby southern port at Vieux Fort. A broker files the entry in ASYCUDA World, and ordinary barrels and shipments may attract import duty, a customs service charge and VAT at 12.5%. Returning nationals coming home to live bring household and personal effects in free of customs duty, enough to furnish a home, plus one vehicle free of duty up to a set value. St Lucia has also tended to grant a Christmas barrel concession each year. Your vetted partner and the broker handle the paperwork.
Laborie sits on the south coast, a short drive from Vieux Fort and around an hour and a half from Castries, so cargo cleared at the southern port has a short final leg. Your partner sorts the routing and times the delivery with you. Sending to nearby southern villages or elsewhere on the island? Browse every area on the St Lucia hub.
Sending a barrel or moving home often goes hand in hand with sending money to family. The local currency is the East Caribbean dollar. For years we've connected customers with trusted partners who handle any currency, so the money side is simple and fair. It's offered through our partners, with no hidden fees.
Whether it's a single barrel or a household coming home, we connect you with one partner suited to the Laborie route and St Lucia customs, not a call centre. For full home moves, partners hold FIDI FAIM accreditation, the global benchmark for international movers, with BAR Overseas the UK marker, and a local broker clears your goods in St Lucia.
