Hello Confused,
I am a freight forwarder and maybe able to assist you
My first question would be : where you want to ship to in Africa.
Secondly, can you give me the 3rd dimension (would need length, width and height). Also, do you have the weight of the item in question.
Lastly, what is the commodity ?
Whilst the piece will definitely not fit in a container, depending on the destination, there may be some services available that can cope with a large oversized piece.
Look forward to hear from you
