The Philadelphia Ghanaian Community and Barrel Shipping

West Philadelphia, Olney, North Philadelphia, Germantown, and the Chester PA area have established Ghanaian and West African communities. Philadelphia is the southernmost point of our standard pickup zone. Because the drive time from Philadelphia is longer than from New York or Newark, we typically consolidate Philadelphia pickups on dedicated run days. When you book, we will give you a specific day of the week for your area. Chester PA and Upper Darby are included in the same pickup zone as Philadelphia at no extra charge.
