Stage Scaffold
Freight Forwarding:
This involves managing the international or domestic transportation of exhibition materials, including customs clearance, documentation, and shipping by air, sea, or road. Exhibition cargo to/from Europe and the UK requires specialized, time-critical logistics, including ATA Carnet management for temporary imports, dedicated vehicle transport (vans to 44t trucks), and on-site, specialized handling to meet strict venue deadlines. Key services include door-to-stand, custom clearance, and on-site support.

Customs Clearance (Post-Brexit): Shipments between the UK and EU require formal customs declarations.
