Automotive

Components, aftermarket parts and oversized cargo, handled with the care and the paperwork the sector expects.

The problem

What goes wrong in automotive.

Automotive freight mixes very small, very valuable parts with very large, very awkward ones — often on the same order.

01

Line-down urgency

An assembly line waiting on a part turns a routine shipment into an emergency with an hourly cost attached.

02

Oversized and irregular cargo

Body panels, tooling and complete units need equipment and route planning that standard freight does not.

03

Packaging that has to survive the trip

Finished surfaces and precision components are unforgiving of handling damage, and damage is expensive to reverse.

04

Classification complexity

Parts, assemblies and cores can be classified differently, and getting it wrong is a border delay and a duty dispute.

How we handle it

What we actually change about the shipment.

Air recovery when the line is at risk

Express and consolidated air options priced immediately, with the transit time stated against the deadline.

Equipment matched to the cargo

Oversized moves are assessed for trailer type, access and permits before anything is booked.

Handling instructions that travel with the freight

How it should be lifted, stacked and stored is documented rather than left to whoever is on shift.

Classification checked up front

Our customs team reviews the commodity before it ships, so the entry is not the thing that holds it.
