Multiple options are available to ship your goods between China and the UK. If you choose an express solution (DHL, TNT, FedEx...) you can expect a door-to-door service in less than a week. Classic air freight will take a little longer with a transit time between 7 and 9 days to your door. Expect between 35 and 40 days for a shipment by sea. Rail freight, on the other hand, will take between 20 and 25 days.
