Freight Forwarder Italy
A comprehensive range of Italian road freight solutions to the UK including weekly groupage services, part and full loads and express freight.
We have been actively involved in road freight from Italy to the UK and in the opposite direction since our incorporation in 1995. Our aim back then was to provide bespoke Italian freight forwarding services with our client’s specific requirements at the forefront of our business. With partner depots throughout Italy, we are well placed to assist you with any shipping from Milan, Modena, Rome, Verona, Naples, Venice and Turin.
Having formerly been named Ceramic Logistics up until 2019, we have built our Italian freight services around the importation of stone & ceramic goods, mainly from the north of Italy in the Bologna region. This base cargo has allowed us to grow and diversify our services throughout Italy whilst providing our clients with very competitive rates on any over-stow or light cargo.
We operate a full range of services to and from Italy, including weekly groupage with departures on Tuesday & Friday, part and full loads with transit times of 3-4 days, and multi-modal operations, including sea freight to the UK (with the best rates on shipping containers) our industry-leading Italian express service for any urgent or time-sensitive cargo.
As of the 1st of January 2021 customs clearance is now required on all goods entering or exiting Great Britain. Here at Plexus Freight we have been working hard to ensure that all our client requirements are met. We aim to be in a position to offer a full range of custom services that will see goods transported in line with the new regulations. With strategically positioned custom offices throughout Europe, we are able to ship goods quickly and efficiently ensuring that we effectively handle all matters of customs for our clients both in the UK and throughout Europe.
