Export and import handling
We coordinate the whole movement as one job: collection at origin, documentation, port or airport handling, clearance, and delivery at destination. One coordinator holds the file, which matters when a shipment sits at a port and somebody needs to make a decision quickly.
- Origin pickup and export packing to destination-country standards
- Commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin preparation
- Booking with sea and air carriers, including consolidation where it saves money
- Port and airport handling at both ends
- Destination clearance and final-mile delivery
Customs clearance
Our licensed brokers sit at the major ports and air cargo complexes rather than working remotely through agents. The practical benefit is that classification problems get flagged before filing, not after your container has started accruing demurrage.
- HS classification reviewed before filing, not after a query is raised
- Bill of entry and shipping bill filing
- Duty assessment, exemption and scheme benefit claims
- Examination attendance and query resolution
- Bonded warehousing arrangements where duty deferral helps your cash flow
Transit insurance
Cover is arranged at booking, based on the value you declare, and shown as a visible line on your quote rather than buried in the rate. Your existing motor or contents policy generally does not cover goods while they are on someone else's vehicle, so this is not a duplicate.
If something goes wrong, we file the claim and follow it up. You should not have to learn insurance procedure because a truck was hit by someone else.
| Cover type | What it protects against |
|---|---|
| All risk | Accidental loss or damage in transit, from any external cause, subject to standard exclusions |
| Basic | Named perils only — fire, collision, overturning, and total loss events |
| Storage extension | Extends cover to goods held in warehouse before or after transit |
