What is Freight Forwarding?

Freight forwarding is the process of arranging the shipment of goods from one location to another, typically across international borders. In the context of our Assisted Shopping service, we use freight forwarders to consolidate your purchases from multiple vendors and ship them to your designated address. This helps reduce shipping costs and simplifies the logistics of receiving goods from various locations.

Why do you use a Freight Forwarder?

• Cost Savings: Consolidating shipments often results in lower shipping rates compared to shipping individual packages from each vendor.
• Simplified Logistics: We handle all the customs paperwork, documentation, and coordination with carriers.
• Global Reach: Freight forwarders allow us to ship to virtually any country in the world.
• Expertise in International Shipping: We partner with experienced freight forwarders who understand the complexities of international shipping regulations and customs procedures.

How does it affect my order?

Using a freight forwarder adds a bit of extra time to the overall delivery process. This is because goods need to be consolidated and processed before international shipment. We'll provide you with estimated delivery times during the quoting process.
