What exactly does a freight forwarder do?

A freight forwarder acts as an intermediary between a shipper and various transportation services. We don't move the freight ourselves; instead, we use our expertise and network to arrange the most efficient, cost-effective routing and handle all complex international documentation.

Do you handle both imports and exports?

Yes, we manage both inbound shipments to the USA (imports) and outbound shipments to global destinations (exports), coordinating with our worldwide agent network.

What is a customs broker?

A customs broker is a licensed professional who clears goods through customs for importers and exporters. We coordinate closely with customs brokers to ensure your freight complies with all regulations and tariffs.

Perguntas Frequentes

"24/7/365, not just a phrase, it was the Labor Day long weekend and we had confirmed with our customer they would need nothing further and we should be good until the middle of the next week. Then the phone rang, a plant down situation occurred. I called the IXF main line hoping someone would answer or I could leave a message and someone would call me back. The phone rang twice and I heard “how can I help you?” I said I needed someone in freight to call me back and she said “I am in freight. How can I help you?” Long story short, after looking at hot shot trucks, chartering an aircraft, etc. It turns out the best option was for Christa to meet the supplier at their warehouse. She ubered to the airport and got on a plane with the parts and met the consignee at the airport in Midland for delivery. Great forward thinking and very cost effective!!!"
