The operations team at Barrington Freight has been dealing with Texan imports of all sorts of different products for many years. Therefore, if you would like to trade with Texan manufacturers and would like to make importing from the state easier, we have a lot of experience to share. Very often UK-based companies simply rely on Texan suppliers to deal with the logistics of getting orders out of the state and to the British Isles. Although this can work out, it is often not the most cost-effective approach. Nor does it deal with the onward journey of goods once they have arrived at a British port. At Barrington Freight, we deal with all of these matters relating to imports from Texas – and much more besides…

To begin with, we have plenty of localised expertise and contacts when it comes to dealing with the logistical side of importing from Texas. For example, we can arrange for the collection of your orders from your supplier’s warehouse in all corners of the state. To be clear, we don’t just deal with Texan imports that originate from big cities, such as Dallas, San Antonio, Fort Worth or Austin. This is because we also have regular dealings with firms in places like Lubbock, Uvalde, Odessa and Longview. As well as being able to arrange professional services in lesser-known locations in Texas, we also help with choosing suitable seaports to ship from.

Importing from Texas (and the other way too)
In the case of Texas, there are some ports that will fit the bill for shipping certain classes of goods to the UK. Houston, Galveston and Corpus Christi all face the Gulf of Mexico and are frequently suitable. However, it may also be more cost-effective to use a haulier to convey containerised goods to a port on the eastern seaboard of the USA. This is because container ports like Jacksonville in Florida or Charleston in South Carolina often have more frequent services running to the UK. We’ll make an informed decision to keep your consignment moving but at a price that offers great value for money.

Clear Customs When Importing to the UK from Texas
As well as dealing with US customs and logistical matters in Texas, importing to the UK with Barrington Freight is made easier thanks to our customs declaration service. All goods from the USA – whether they’re imported from Texas or not – must come with appropriate paperwork. Indeed, UK importers must also make online declarations to HMRC these days. Getting these even a little bit wrong can cause delays when your goods arrive in British waters. Why not have us take care of this for you so that the whole importation business from Texas is handled for you?
We’re friendly, easy to work with, honest and we don’t charge the earth.
