International Sea Freight to Australia
Since 2021, the A-UKFTA trade deal between the UK and Australia has come into force meaning that the flow of goods from Britain to the antipodes has become much easier. Although many British exporters are keen to build their customer base in Australia, a lack of knowledge in international sea freight can hold them back. This is where the professional services available at Barrington Freight come into their own. Our operations team has a wealth of knowledge to share with UK-based companies that have orders from Australian customers they want to fulfil cost-effectively.
Please bear in mind that, here at Barrington Freight, our service offering is for commercial freight only. That’s good to know if you work for a British exportation firm with customers in Melbourne, Brisbane or Adelaide, for example, because it means you will be able to receive a dedicated B2B service from us. We are members of BIFA, so you will know you can trust our freight forwarders to do an expert job with all sea freight shipments from the UK to Australia.
Furthermore, we have a large team of drivers in our countrywide network that we can call upon at any time to collect your Australia-bound shipments. We cover all of the mainland from Inverness to Ivybridge and from Llandudno to Leatherhead. If you have some cartons or pallets to collect, then we’ll send a van but for larger loads that will make up part of an LCL container shipment or even a full, FCL one, we will despatch an HGV driver with a suitably sized lorry. Note that all consignments to Australia from the UK we manage are placed into secure shipping containers for their onward journey to the southern hemisphere.
Why Choose Barrington Freight For Sea Freighted Exports to Australia?
At Barrington Freight, we have been dealing with international logistics for many years. This includes exported goods to Australia both before the free trade deal was signed and after it. Given our high level of expertise and competitive pricing structure, there is no better place you could turn to for professionally managed sea freight services to Australia in the UK. We are members of the International Federation of Freight Forwarders Associations (FIATA), after all.
Not only is our operations team capable of handling the logistical side of shipping goods to Australia by sea but we can also help with your customs clearance needs, too. Just ask us about this additional service if you need it. In addition, you can request a door-to-door service to your customer which means we’ll arrange onward transit of your shipment after it has cleared customs at the port of entry, for example, Darwin, Newcastle or Fremantle.
