Sea Freight

Shipping to literally hundreds of ports worldwide, we are a leading freight forwarder to Asia, North & South America, Australasia, and other destinations closer to home! Barrington’s economical shipping services deliver Sea Freight (aka Ocean Freight) to every corner of the world. Carrying cargo from the UK to the world is our speciality.

Whilst sea freight has been with us for centuries, international container shipping has revolutionised ocean freight, and drastically reduced the costs. You don’t even have to fill a 20ft or 40ft container, we are happy to accept LCL (less than a container load) as groupage shipping. Your pallet or carton delivery is consolidated with other cargo from the UK to your destination port, making our cheap international shipping rates even more competitive.

Just some of our most popular Ocean Freight services from the UK:

• FULL CONTAINER LOADS (FCL) shipping to DESTINATIONS WORLDWIDE
• FREIGHT FORWARDING to DIFFICULT or OBSCURE ports (even shipments which others decline!)
• PALLETS to EUROPE, whether LCL or FCL; and crates and packages too
• CONTAINERS to the FAR EAST and EXPRESS SEA FREIGHT to UNITED STATES / CANADA

Barrington’s worldwide shipping services take Ocean Freight to a new level. We are one of the cheaper international freight forwarders, with low overheads, yet bags of expertise!

Despite offering very economical sea freight rates, we prefer to think of ourselves as value for money; we always work hard to give you the best deal, and to save you money on your overall freight shipping costs.
