Freight forwarding - or, if you prefer, freight-forwarding
What we do - the Short version:
Arrange for your consignment to go from
where it is, to where you want it to be. On time and at
the right price.
|
What we do: the Longer version:
- Freight forwarding means we handle all
aspects of sea and air shipping, both import and
export, worldwide.
- Consignments can be door-to-door (where we have 'hands on' from start to finish), FOB or ex-works.
- We handle trucking at both origin
and destination.
- We clear customs for you on imports at any UK port or airport, ensuring that duty
and VAT is paid in a timely manner.
- We have agents in most countries (several of whom have been with us since
our inception), who work on our behalf to mitigate local
problems and ensure trouble-free movement of goods.
- We handle warehousing and storage, both long-
and short-term, and export case
packing..

But just as importantly,
we ensure we set-up a close relationship with our clients:
- For imports we endeavour to have direct links to the supplier,
so they can directly mail us relevant documents to save
time.
- For exports, time is also saved by
arranging documents to be sent by fax and/or courier directly to the consignee or their clearing agent.

"We have dealt with Active Cargo for about 11 or 12 years and continue to build a strong relationship because they are efficient, willing to help (even with shipping problems that don't directly involve them), friendly and always there at the end of the phone. Nothing seems too much trouble for them: it's as if we are their only customer and they are waiting for us to call.
To us service is crucial and Active Cargo delivers every time."
