Freight Forwarders

Freight forwarders are specialists in overseeing the timely, efficient and cost-effective transportation of your goods. As freight forwarders, we don't transport cargo ourselves – we act on your behalf to negotiate reduced rates with carriers, sort the paperwork, and liaise with carriers to ensure a smooth, successful delivery.

Whether you're delivering commercial cargo or personal effects, freight forwarders can offer the best shipping solutions for you and your business, along with specialist advice and support.

Experienced Freight Forwarding Specialists

Transglobal Express is an independent freight forwarder with over 20 years’ experience in the industry. As major account holders with the biggest global carriers, including UPS, DHL, TNT and DPD, we're able to negotiate the best possible shipping rates and pass those savings on to you.

While international freight shipping typically specialises in either sea freight, air freight or road transportation, we are the only major freight forwarder in the UK to offer services in each of these major categories and to offer door-to-door courier services. This means that we can tailor a shipping solution to your needs whatever your time frame and budget.
