Ocean Freight Solutions You Can Trust

Safe and reliable sea transport backed by decades of expertise and genuine personal service.

For 40 years, Freight Agency has been helping businesses and individuals move cargo safely across the world’s oceans. Whether you are shipping a single pallet or multiple containers, you will work with experienced specialists who understand the complexities of international sea freight and genuinely care about your success. Our comprehensive ocean freight service combines competitive rates, expert customs knowledge, and the personal attention that makes international shipping straightforward.

Full Container Load (FCL)

Dedicated container space for your cargo with competitive rates from major carriers. We handle everything from booking to delivery, ensuring smooth customs clearance and reliable transit times.

Less than Container Load (LCL)

Share container space and costs with other shippers. Our consolidation service lets you ship smaller quantities economically whilst maintaining professional handling and reliable schedules.

Project Cargo & Out-of-Gauge (OOG)

Specialised handling for oversized or unusual cargo. Our experienced team coordinates flat racks, open tops, and breakbulk solutions for shipments that do not fit standard containers.

Cross-Trade Shipments

Ship between two countries without UK involvement. Through our global network of 150+ trusted partners, we coordinate seamless international movements anywhere in the world.

Ocean freight is the backbone of international trade. At Freight Agency, we provide UK businesses with reliable, cost-effective shipping solutions backed by personal service you can trust.

What We Offer:

Our decades of partnerships with the world’s largest shipping lines mean competitive rates and guaranteed space availability for your cargo. We offer multiple service options for both FCL and LCL shipments, finding the best combination of cost, transit time, and reliability for your specific needs.

Our specialists navigate complex customs and regulatory requirements, ensuring compliant documentation and smooth clearance particularly for West African destinations where we have unmatched expertise. With our own office in Tema, Ghana, and decades of regional experience, we provide comprehensive support for UK-Africa trade corridors.

Shipping personal effects, a vehicle, or household goods internationally? We make ocean freight simple and stress-free, handling all the complex logistics so you do not have to.

What We Offer:

You will work with a dedicated specialist who explains every step, answers your questions, and ensures you understand the process from start to finish. We coordinate the complete journey from collection at your UK location to final delivery at your overseas destination, including all customs clearance.

Choose the service that fits your timeline and budget. Our shared container (LCL) option provides a cost-effective solution for smaller shipments, whilst full container service offers dedicated space for larger moves or vehicle shipping. We also offer groupage services, combining your shipment with others heading to the same destination to maximise cost efficiency.

We provide clear, honest quotes with no hidden fees, explaining exactly what you are paying for and helping you find the most cost-effective solution. International shipping requires paperwork, and we guide you through all documentation requirements, handling customs clearance on your behalf to ensure a smooth process.

For vehicle shipping, we offer specialised service for cars, motorcycles, and other vehicles, arranging secure transport and handling all export/import procedures.
