Truck and Trailer Shipping Services from the UK

Professional International Truck & Trailer Shipping Solutions

We provide reliable, professional and cost-effective international truck and trailer shipping services from the United Kingdom to destinations worldwide.

Shipping heavy commercial vehicles overseas requires experience, specialist knowledge and careful planning. Our dedicated freight team specialises in arranging the safe transportation of trucks, trailers, lorries and commercial vehicles using trusted international shipping networks.

Truck and trailer shipping is a straightforward and efficient way to transport large commercial vehicles overseas. Due to their size and dimensions, trucks and trailers are generally not suitable for standard container shipping. Instead, they are transported using specialised Roll-on/Roll-off (RoRo) vessel services, which are specifically designed for large vehicles and machinery.

Using RoRo shipping, the truck or trailer is professionally driven onto the vessel, securely positioned and carefully fastened for the international journey. Once the vessel arrives at the destination port, the vehicle can be safely driven off and prepared for collection or onward delivery.

TG Forwarding Shipping Ltd manages the complete export process on behalf of our customers, including:

• Vehicle shipping arrangements
• Export documentation
• Port coordination
• Customs procedures
• Shipping bookings
• International freight management
• Destination support

With our experienced team handling every stage of the process, customers can export trucks and trailers internationally with confidence and without unnecessary delays or complications.
