The Bronx has one of the largest Ghanaian communities in New York City. If you're sending barrels home to Ghana from the Bronx — whether from Co-op City, Fordham, Pelham Bay, or anywhere else in the borough — Guldstreet Shipping offers free doorstep pickup and door-to-door delivery directly to your family's home in Ghana.
You pack your barrel. We come to your building, pick it up, and take it from there — ocean freight, customs at Tema Port, and delivery to your recipient's door anywhere in Ghana. No trips to a warehouse. No coordinating multiple companies. One call or WhatsApp message to us and it's done.

- Pack your barrel. Fill it with clothing, shoes, dry food, household goods, gifts, or fabric. We'll send you a packing guide if you need one. Maximum weight: 300 lbs.
- We pick up at your door. Our driver comes to your Bronx address, weighs and inspects the barrel, and takes it to our warehouse. You get a pickup confirmation on WhatsApp.
- Barrel sails to Ghana. Your cargo consolidates with the next sailing and departs for Tema Port. Transit is approximately 28–35 days.
- Delivery in Ghana. We clear customs at Tema Port and deliver to your family's door anywhere in Ghana — Accra, Kumasi, Takoradi, Cape Coast, Tamale, or any region.
Bronx Barrel Shipping Rates
55-gallon standard barrel: from $210. 65-gallon long barrel: from $260. Rates include free pickup in the Bronx, ocean freight, customs clearance at Tema Port, and door delivery in Ghana. Ghana Customs import duties are separate and vary by contents — we provide an estimate when you book.
What Can I Put in the Barrel?
Most customers ship a mix of clothing and shoes, dry food (rice, palm oil, canned tomatoes, sardines, dried fish), fabric and cloth, household goods, gifts and personal effects, and cosmetics and toiletries. Do not pack firearms, drugs, flammable liquids, cash, or items on Ghana's prohibited list.
