At Barrington Freight, we have a proven track record in arranging imports from West Virginia that British businesses need. Dealing with importation processes from anywhere in the United States takes a certain degree of expertise, especially if you are to avoid delays with shipments and potential problems with customs officials. This is why our West Virginian importation service can be so effective, something that is particularly useful if your firm is inexperienced with international trade or the processes involved with arranging consignments from the US.

Because West Virginia exports well over $1.5 billion dollars worth of goods in a typical year, lots of British importation firms eye it as a state where they can find suppliers geared up for international trade. Along with chemicals and pharmaceuticals, West Virginia is known for the production of automotive components, wooden goods and numerous fabricated products. Whether you are seeking a direct commercial relationship with a West Virginian manufacturing firm or a wholesaler that is based there, our operations team will be able to assist you with all of the logistics required to ensure goods reach the UK promptly from this part of the country.

Importing from west virginia (and the other way too)

Given West Virginia’s location, we will frequently arrange for your orders to be sent via shipping container ports on the East Coast. Baltimore, New Jersey and Virginia Ports all serve as excellent choices for direct shipping routes to the UK. Other options include Wilmington and Charleston, both further south. Whichever route is selected, we can ensure the swift transit of consignments thanks to our freight forwarding licenses in the US.

Barrington Freight Has Years of Experience With West Virginian Imports

The operations team at Barrington Freight is ready to take your call or respond to your email enquiry. With our many years of know-how handling import processes from West Virginia for UK firms, we will be able to offer you exceptional levels of service across numerous classes of goods.

Import from West Virginia to the UK Cost-Effectively

If you need multiple containers for your shipment to the UK, then we will arrange them for you. Equally, we can have your items collected for you and then combine them with others bound for the UK in less than contain (LCL) loads from West Virginia. This way, your goods will still be protected in ocean-going containers but you won’t have to pay for the full price of hiring one since these costs will be shared. We’ll even arrange for the onward journey of your West Virginia imports once they have been unloaded at a UK port.

Please note that Barrington Freight is also able to prepare your customs declarations for you. Why wait for your paperwork to be cleared by UK customs officers when we can do this on your behalf before your West Virginian imports arrive? Not only does this save time but it also means ironing out issues that can arise from matters like commodity codes, VAT and excise. This customs clearance work is dealt with in-house by our experts and is an optional service for importers who need it.

We’re friendly, easy to work with, honest and we don’t charge the earth.

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!
