Freight forwarding services are logistics services that involve transporting goods from one place to another. A freight forwarder can arrange for the collection, storage and delivery of goods on behalf of customers.
Freight forwarding plays a vital role in coordinating the worldwide transportation of goods, with freight forwarders effectively managing the complex logistics for both importers and exporters. Serving as intermediaries, forwarders organise the transportation of goods—often across international borders—by whatever means is most effective, whether that be land, air, sea, or rail. Forwarders manage documentation, carrier selection, consolidation and customs clearance as part of this.
To arrange the effective transport of your freight, just reach out to Clarke Global Logistics. We’ll guide you through the necessary documentation, carrier selection and customs procedures. Throughout the journey, from origin to destination, we will expertly manage shipments, provide real-time progress updates and supervise the entire delivery process—alleviating you of the task of dealing with the logistical complexities involved in transporting your goods across borders. Our close relationships with global partners allow us to monitor your cargo every step of the way, ensuring a seamless journey of goods from origin to destination.
