Key Considerations for Shipping Auto Parts
If you’re shipping car engine components or other auto parts to Europe, keep these important factors in mind:
- Drain all fluids from engines before transport.
- Securely strap engines to a pallet where possible.
- Ensure fragile components are well packed for safe European road transport.
- Arrange freight insurance for high-value items.
- Plan for loading and unloading—heavy items may require a tail-lift vehicle.

The quote was quick and easy, booking was straightforward and everything was handled smoothly from start to finish. As this was our first import we needed a bit of guidance along the way but Simon was brilliant. He took care of everything, kept us updated throughout and was always on hand to answer our questions. What seemed like a complicated process was made incredibly simple and stress free. The customer service was excellent, communication was spot on and our shipment arrived without any issues. We wouldn’t hesitate to use them again and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable freight forwarder. Thanks again for making our first import such a positive experience!

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a time-critical air freight shipment coming in from China to the UK and Simon was a huge help in getting it over the line. Right before arrival, an issue came up due to a mistake from the airline, which could have turned into a real headache. Simon picked it up straight away, dealt with it quickly and managed to sort everything without any extra costs on our side. Really solid support throughout and easy to deal with, especially given the urgency. Another great job by Barrington Freight - we’ll definitely be using them again!

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Good service during a turbulent global shipping period. Special thanks goes to Lee for his efficiency and proactive updates and for rescheduling a delivery in less than 24hrs when the haulage company didn’t read their own paperwork and sent a lorry without the requested tail lift. Highly recommended.

Shipping Car Parts: FAQs
What is the cheapest way to ship large car parts?

Which components will a good car parts shipping company typically handle?
A reliable car parts shipping company can transport most non-hazardous components, including engines, gearboxes, body panels, suspension parts and electronic modules. However, hazardous materials such as airbags, batteries and fuel systems may require special handling or be restricted.
Is BIFA membership a sign of reliability when shipping car parts?
