IMPORTANT! Information on EORI numbers.
Considering shipping goods to/from Europe? In the UK, businesses, self-employed and private individuals involved in a commercial transaction must register, the same for businesses and self-employed within the EU, so before exporting/importing it is essential to make sure that both you and your customers/suppliers in Europe have the EORI numbers (unless your EU customer is a private individual in which case they do not need it).

We are delighted to announce that we are now one of the few businesses in the industry to offer instant online sea freight quotes for both imports and exports, and the only company to provide door-to-door options for exports (for business customers only) and door-to-port (for business and private individuals). We are operating in a highly-volatile industry, and we are always trying to adapt the services we provide to all of our customers' needs and always looking to improve on the existing online system such as adding new services, so you can export and import your freight at a click of a button.
As Brexit has finally happened, after 3 years of negotiations and uncertainty, the UK can now look forward to new trade opportunities outside Europe, and to develop the ones already in place. The USA and Canada are 2 of the most important potential trade partners, and we want to offer our customers the easiest and most cost-effective solutions when importing/exporting goods from and to these 2 countries. Furthermore, we have added 3 new sea freight services on our website:
A similar initiative, this time related to the sea freight service, will focus on LCL (less-than-container-loads) and FCL (full-container-loads). In similar terms, if you are a customers who is shipping full container loads to anywhere in the world we will be able to get back to you with some of the lowest prices in the industry much quicker, so your business will truly profit from our network of freight forwarding partners and the experience and expertise of our operations team.
We are very excited about these new sea, air and road freight services, we are sure they will offer great value for money for many of our customers and help them export or import their goods for less. We want to offer everyone a modern, transparent online freight platform, a platform anyone can use on their laptop or mobile from the comfort of their home or office to obtain instant pallet delivery rates to and from anywhere in the words in seconds. On top of this we are working hard to continuously update the website with new information about legislation, documentation and procedures when it comes to international trade, so our customers have the confidence of using any of these services. We would like to make it clear to you: we will be here to help you every step the way, from the moment you book with us online, to the minute your pallets get delivered. In Pallet2Ship you will have an honest and experienced partner so do not hesitate to contact us at any time if you have any questions about any of our international or domestic pallet services.
