5 Typical Problems People Have When Sending Parcels Internationally…Ring Any Bells?
- One. Sometimes, I find completing all the complex paperwork is a real challenge. Whether it’s specialist exports, exhibition materials, or general documentation – the complex rules, regulations and paperwork, particularly post Brexit, can be exceptionally daunting. As an international courier service, we deal with it all. Yup, every single thing –to make sure you stay in a happy place.
- Two. Do you only care about my delivery until you go home? Don’t worry; we’re not some soulless giant, and you’re not some tiny fish in a vast pond. You and your business matter to us, and we work 24/7 to deliver the service you deserve.
- Three. I hate spending lots of time tracking, and worrying about where my consignment has gone. We track and trace right the way through your consignment’s journey and let you know the moment it’s delivered. And, if there’s a problem, we’ll start looking for the solution immediately.
- Four. I don’t like dealing with a faceless, uncaring, call centre when I have a problem. One of the things our clients love is the personal attention and care we bring to them and their delivery needs. We all know that we don’t have a business without you, so we couldn’t make it more personal if we hand-delivered every consignment ourselves.
- Five. I’m never sure what hidden costs and surcharges I might get slapped with. No one likes to be quoted one price, only to find ‘surprise’ extras added throughout the service. The good news is you don’t have to worry. What we quote is what you pay. That’s it.

International Imports
Bringing your stuff back into the UK can all too often be something of a nightmare –but relying on us means it’ll be more of a pleasant dream. Our years of experience and our support network mean we can avoid the typical problems you can expect from Customs Authorities.
International Exhibition Couriers
There’s nothing worse than paying thousands on an exhibition to find that the literature, samples, or display items haven’t arrived. We deal with many exhibitions and are used to working within tight time slots at literally any time of day or night. And, our dedicated European same-day service guarantees your stuff – all of it – will reach you on time.
And of course, once your exhibition or conference has finished, we’ll be there to collect and return your items quickly and safely.
International Dry Ice and Medical Delivery
Moving dry ice and medical shipments is often expensive but doesn’t have to be. We use the same networks as many of the ‘specialists’ and can provide a ‘top up’ service to help prevent spoilage, help with custom and technical requirements, ship your consignments anywhere you need, and effectively deliver the same service, just at a better price.
Useful things to know about getting your goods through customs with the least amount of problems.
Countries across the globe deal with thousands of incoming deliveries every day, which is why they have detailed checklists and procedures. The closer you get to ticking all the boxes, the easier it is for your consignment to flow smoothly and avoid delays.
Typical requirements for worldwide deliveries are: –
- You’ll need to provide a Commercial Invoice for most non- document items. This invoice effectively provides the basis for all related documentation. It shows the sale of goods from seller to buyer – and is used to identify, control and value the goods for customs duty and ensure they meet a countries import requirements. Typically, you’ll need to provide the original documentation and 2-3 copies.
- You can often download Commercial Invoices templates or use business or personal stationery.
- You may need to provide a Certificate of Origin. This identifies the country of manufacture – which can matter because some countries restrict or give preference to imports from certain other countries. While the form can typically be generic, it must match the details on the Commercial Invoice.
