 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a fantastic experience importing our goods from Florida and honestly couldn’t fault the service. 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.

FAQs on Packing Export Solutions and Crating Services

What is Export Packing?

Export packing is the process of preparing goods for international shipping to ensure they remain secure and intact throughout transit. It involves using high-quality materials, such as ISPM15-certified timber, and advanced packing techniques to protect cargo from physical damage, moisture, and environmental factors. Proper export packing not only safeguards goods but also ensures compliance with international shipping regulations, preventing delays at customs and ensuring a seamless logistics experience.

What Types of Goods Benefit from Export Pallet Packing?

Export pallet packing is ideal for a wide range of goods, including:

Fragile Items: Such as glass, ceramics, or electronic equipment, which require cushioning and stability.
Heavy or Bulky Goods: Industrial machinery and components that need strong, reinforced bases.
Consumer Products: Large shipments of retail goods that benefit from organised and compact palletisation.

Pallet packing improves efficiency during loading and unloading while minimising the risk of damage.

When is Crating Necessary for Cargo?

Crating is necessary for cargo that requires enhanced protection due to its value, fragility, or unique dimensions. Common scenarios where crating is recommended include:

High-Value Goods: Items like artwork, antiques, and precision instruments that need secure packaging.
Oversized or Irregularly Shaped Items: Cargo that cannot be adequately protected with standard packing methods.
Delicate Machinery: Industrial or medical equipment that requires customised support and shock resistance.
Long-Distance Transit: Goods subject to multiple handling points or harsh environmental conditions during their journey.

Custom-built crates ensure optimal security and compliance with shipping standards.

What are the Different Types of Wooden Cases Used in Export Packing?

Wooden cases for export packing come in various types, each designed to meet specific shipping needs:

Plywood Cases: Lightweight yet durable, suitable for smaller goods and air freight.
Heavy-Duty Timber Crates: Robust and ideal for large, heavy, or high-value items requiring maximum protection.
Open-Slat Crates: Used for goods that do not require full enclosure but still need structural support and ventilation.
Customised Cases: Tailored designs built to the exact specifications of irregularly shaped or sensitive cargo.

These options ensure that every shipment is securely packed and optimally protected for its journey.

What is Your Bespoke Export Packing Service?

Our bespoke export packing service provides tailored solutions to meet the specific needs of your cargo. This includes:

Integrated Monitoring Options: Tilt and shock detectors added to packaging to track handling during transit.
