Shipping Prefabricated Frozen Food Crates: A UK Guide

Shipping Method

The most likely method is FCL (Full Container Load) in refrigerated containers (reefers) for consistent temperature control. Shipping International offers expertise in this area.

Considerations

Size and Weight: Adhering to standard container dimensions and weight limits is important. Exceeding limits may require OOG (Out of Gauge) handling and potentially Breakbulk shipment.

Temperature Control: Maintaining the correct temperature is crucial. Specify the required range.

Packaging: Securely package crates; use additional protection if needed.

Documentation: Accurate documentation is essential. This includes commercial invoices, packing lists, certificates of origin, and phytosanitary certificates (if required).

Insurance: Cargo insurance protects against loss or damage. Shipping International can advise on appropriate coverage.

Customs Regulations: Comply with all customs regulations in exporting and importing countries. Provide necessary documentation to avoid delays. Shipping International has experience navigating these regulations.

Shipping Process

1. Preparation: Prepare crates, ensuring proper packaging and labeling.
2. Pickup: Pickup arrangements are typically handled by the shipping provider.
3. Transit: Shipment is transported to the destination port.
4. Delivery: Delivery is arranged to your location.
