Please note that Virginia has one of the most vibrant manufacturing sectors of any US state. As such, large numbers of British businesses could find excellent supplies in the state. Virginian companies are known for their production of clothing, textiles, electrical equipment and wooden products, among others. Indeed, the manufacturing sector taken as a whole is worth some $45 billion in Virginia. Why miss out on buying from manufacturers which would like to export to UK commercial customers simply because you don’t have the in-house expertise to cope with trans-Atlantic trade?

Importing from virginia (and the other way too)
At Barrington Freight, we have experts who can negotiate great local rates for your logistical operation when buying from Virginian suppliers. Rather than leaving it to them to sort out, we will arrange for your goods to be collected from their warehouse and shipped to the UK at what is often a much lower cost. We can handle small consignments that will be placed into containers along with other orders bound for the British Isles. We can also arrange for large shipments of full container loads or even multiple containers, as necessary. Even better, we know every corner of the state, too, from Roanoke to Richmond and from Norfolk to Norton. Consequently, you can rely on us to do a great job whenever you import from Virginia.
Entrust Barrington Freight With Your Virginian Imports

Deal With UK Customs Efficiently When Importing from Virginia
Another important thing to note about Barrington Freight is that we also act as customs clearance brokers. This means that, if you want us to, we can complete your UK customs clearance declarations for you. All goods from the US – whether they are imports from Virginia or not – must be declared with HMRC both online and in a paper format. We can take care of this administration for you by acting on your behalf. We’ll even register you with HMRC to obtain an EORI number if your firm has never imported goods before. This way, all of the matters like VAT and commodity codes that cause so many importation headaches will be dealt with for you.
We’re friendly, easy to work with, honest and we don’t charge the earth.
