On African Post GH you name your own price, but it helps to know what's realistic. Set it too low and you'll get few offers; set a fair budget and verified transporters compete for your parcel.
Sample routes (small ~5 kg parcel)
- Accra → Kumasi (250 km): GH₵ 90–170
- Accra → Cape Coast (145 km): GH₵ 60–110
- Accra → Tamale (605 km): GH₵ 195–385
- Kumasi → Tamale (385 km): GH₵ 130–250
- Tema → Takoradi (240 km): GH₵ 90–165
What moves the price
Distance and weight are the big ones, but timing matters too — a flexible deadline gets cheaper offers than "needed today". Fragile or bulky items, and pickup/drop-off outside the city centre, can also nudge the price up.
Tip: post, then compare
The fastest way to learn the real price is to send your parcel and watch the offers come in. You're never obliged to accept — pick the best balance of price, rating and timing.
