Vieux Fort sits at the southern tip of St Lucia, the island's second town and the place most visitors first set foot, since Hewanorra International Airport is right here. It's a working, down-to-earth community with a deep-water harbour, a free-trade zone, the long sweep of Sandy Beach and the Maria Islands nature reserve just offshore. More affordable than the north, it's steadily growing, drawing both local families and some relocation, but it stays firmly barrel and returning-nationals country at heart.
Whether it's a single barrel for relatives or a whole home, the same free service connects you with one vetted partner who packs, ships and clears it, then delivers to your Vieux Fort 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.

Most shipments for St Lucia clear at Port Castries, but Vieux Fort has its own deep-water port in the south, which can suit cargo bound for this end of the island. Either way, a broker files the entry in ASYCUDA World. Ordinary goods 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. Your vetted partner and the broker sort the routing and the paperwork.
Vieux Fort is at the southern end of the island, around an hour and a half by road from Castries, though cargo cleared at the local port has only 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 Vieux Fort 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.
