Road Haulage Routes to Guernsey
Barrington Freight is a team of professional and experienced forwarders to the Channel Islands, including Guernsey, which is known in French as the “Bailliage de Guernesey ”. Heavily influenced by its proximity to France, lying just 45km (28 miles) from the coast of Normandy, Guernsey still has an undeniable Gallic ambience. You may hear the ancient local dialect of Dgernesiais (Norman patois) still being used if you listen carefully.
Lush botanic gardens, hidden beach coves and glorious sunsets over the Atlantic give Guernsey a distinctly sub-tropical feel. There are more than a few quirky gems to explore, such as the Little Chapel and Castle Cornet, as well as the great French writer Victor Hugo’s house (owned by the city of Paris), which attracts numerous international visitors. As a bailiwick (a district area or jurisdiction), Guernsey is made up of ten parishes. These are Castel, Forest, St Andrew, St Martin, St Peter Port, St Pierre du Bois, St Sampson, St Saviour, Torteval and Vale.
In addition, Guernsey serves as the gateway to the islands of Alderney and Sark (each with its own parliament), plus the smaller islands of Herm, Jethou and Lihou.
Barrington Freight operates as the premier freight forwarder to Guernsey, offering exceptional shipping rates beyond the parishes and islands to towns and villages. Typical consignments we organise will be to places like Brecqhou, Capelles, Duval, L’Islet, La Collinette, La Tonnelle, La Tour, Les Martins, Newtown, Rousse, St. Anne and St Germain, among others.
We handle freight to Guernsey beyond St Peter Port, reaching locations across the island. Whether transporting construction materials, retail stock or urgent medical supplies, we ensure timely and efficient delivery.
Common shipping to Guernsey routes include:
- UK – Southampton/Portsmouth – Guernsey
- Ferry departures 3-4 times per week.
- Road transport to UK ferry terminals, then onward transport to Guernsey via roll-on/roll-off services.

Bear in mind that some large deliveries require special care and expertise in Guernsey due to the often tight, winding local roads and vehicle size restrictions on the island. With an extensive network of small streets across Guernsey, large delivery shipments will benefit from our local know-how.
This includes multiple drop deliveries, as some areas have vehicle size restrictions but others do not. We can provide tail lift vehicles or a Hiab (crane lorry) for those without forklift access. Furthermore, we can also organise particularly challenging shipments, whether they are big, tall, long or high as well as those that include especially heavy, awkward or unusual items, such as large agricultural machinery.
Please note that we ship EU and UK pallets and carton groupage to Guernsey, too. We can handle printer pallets, wooden pallets, plastic pallets, 120×100 and 120×80 centimetre base pallets, stackable and non-stackable pallets, shrink and stretch wrapped goods, crates, skids and stillages. In short, we cover most types of freight to Guernsey.
VAT IN GUERNSEY
Guernsey is not a constituent part of the UK. As such, it represents one of the closest overseas destinations for delivering commercial cargo via road freight.
Unlike EU states, there is no import VAT or duty to pay when shipping freight to Guernsey from the UK. However, this only applies so long as the goods being sent to the island were manufactured or obtained in the UK. Despite this, it is important for businesses based on the mainland to note that customs documentation is still required for shipments to Guernsey.
At Barrington Freight, we offer unbeatable shipping rates on our express freight services, groupage services, and special handling services for both exports and imports to and from the Channel Islands. Whether you’re shipping large machinery or consignments of awkward shapes and sizes, we ensure a smooth process from start to finish. Our team can also assist with all necessary customs documentation, making your freight journey as seamless and hassle-free as possible.
