Thinking About Exporting Plant Machinery

Exporting Plant Machinery

When it comes to exporting plant machinery you need to get it right.

With the global pandemic adding extra pressures to exporting plant machinery abroad, there are basic good practices that you need to consider. There’s no doubt that it has been much harder over the last year to trade internationally, but with restrictions starting to ease, the process should start to become less restrictive. So what considerations do you need to be thinking about.

What are the considerations?

Choosing a company that has a good track record in the industry is always a good start. Check for reviews on their website, the types of company that they work with and the experience they have in shipping plant machinery worldwide. Pricing is important, some shipping companies work in partnership with other shipping lines, so can offer competitive pricing.

Customer service is also very important when it comes to exporting or importing your plant machinery. Being kept informed at every step of the process ensures a constant flow of updated information. Because the vehicle may have to stay at the port in question for up to 3 weeks before shipping, look out for companies that offer safe and secure storage of your machinery at the port.

Any company you use should attend to all the export paperwork including organising all UK clearance and booking shipping space on the vessel. Look for companies that include within the quotation, aspects like strapping and securing machinery, UK custom clearance, preparation of custom documentation, shipping to your country of choice, boarding of carrier vessel and bill of lading fee.
