exporting from California (and the other way too)
Please bear in mind that most of our delivery services to California are sent to the large seaport at Los Angeles via the Panama Canal. However, this is not the only option. Far from it, in fact. Sometimes, we’ll make landfall at San Diego, ideal for onward transit to places in the southern part of the state, such as Salton City or Ocotillo, for example. There again, we can route shipments via San Jose or San Francisco, perfect for goods that will end up in locations like Sacramento or Fresno. If it is more cost effective, we’ll even use East Coast ports like Charleston and have the goods conveyed to California by land. Whatever makes the most sense given your circumstances, we will make the necessary arrangements.

Brilliant EXW freight forwarding services from China to the UK. Professionally done, readily available for support, and our shipments were trackable. There were last minute issues on regards to customs clearance and redirecting of goods that we take responsibility for, but with their quick action, we were able to swiftly solve it all in much less than 24hrs. Fantastic experience working with Simon and his team, will continue to engage them for the foreseeable future. Thanks again Simon and the BF team!
