You can send your excess luggage overseas through either Full Container Load (FCL) or Less Than Container Load (LCL) according to the size of your items. Sea freight can be an optimal choice as it has fewer restrictions so you can send flammable items like perfume and even products like medicines (subject to customs compliance).
