Once you have found a supplier in Arkansas and have placed an order for goods with them, we will arrange for your consignment to be collected from them and to have it transported by road to a port on the East Coast or somewhere in the Gulf of Mexico. Depending on where in Arkansas your supplier is located, it may make sense to have the goods sent to New Orleans in Louisiana or Mobile in Alabama, for instance, so they can be loaded onto a trans-Atlantic service for the UK. Alternatively, we might arrange for the shipment to be conveyed to container ports at Charleston or Jacksonville, for example.

Importing from Arkansas (and the other way too)
With our importation service, you will be able to get your goods on their way to British waters sooner than you might think and at a much lower cost than an air freight operator. What’s more, our freight forwarding service for Arkansas covers much more than the state capital of Little Rock. We have local knowledge and expertise in lesser-known parts of the state, too, such as Ozark, Jonesboro, Hot Springs and Pine Bluff, for instance. Given that numerous Fortune 500 companies are based in Arkansas, there are plenty of good reasons for British firms to trade in the state. We simply make life easier for those that do.

Customs Matters for Arkansas Imports Handled
Please note that Barrington Freight’s operations team handles more than the transit of goods from Arkansas to their port of embarkation. We will also manage the consignment until it arrives in the UK and get it to you as soon as possible. Part of this means passing through both US and UK customs, of course. Although you can arrange for your own customs clearances, if wanted, this is another service we also offer with Arkansas imports. As such, we can take care of the relevant import licenses, commodity code declarations and VAT payments, where these may be necessary. Unlike other freight forwarding firms, we keep our customs brokerage work in-house so that the two services can be combined to great effect at a highly competitive price.
We are friendly, easy to work with, honest and we do not charge the earth.
