Bahrain is a sovereign state which makes it one of the most difficult countries to ship pallets to. Customs are very strict and require detailed documentation from the sender and the receiver to clear pallet or large parcel shipments. This however, is not a problem for us - our carriers regularly update us with any changes and requirements, so that our customers have a swift and hassle free service. You will be asked for the required documentation upon completion of the booking so there is no delay in your pallet delivery shipping.
We can also offer air freight to ship small and large items such as parcels and pallets.
Both of these services are traceable and require signatures upon delivery. Pallet collections are made from your Door in the UK and depending on the specific service delivery, would be to Door or Port. When you are ready to complete your online pallet quote or if you just require a quote, please enter your details on our website and if the price is not visible, enter a special quote and someone in our sales team will reply to you.
