Freight quote needed
Question
Hi
I am currently trying to overcome a freight forwarding issue for one of my consignments. I currently have a team of forwarders working on it but if any new forwarders can offer me a solution I would be interested:
Collection :
Michigan, USA
Tuesday 3 September 2013
(Unable to load containers sooner due to labour day holiday)
Delivery :
Middlesex, UK
– OR –
Any UK port
No later than Thursday 19 September 2013
Goods :
2 x 40ft HC Containers
– OR –
3 x 40ft Containers
Please leave quotes below.
I am aware this will be very tight however the goods are being re-exported on Friday 20 September so if i cannot find a seafreight option i will just have the goods packed and airfreight them across.
I do not need assistance with other exports at this time, however if a forwarder was to impress me with this consignment it may lead to future work.
Kind regards

Answer
Gemma, if you could confirm the zip code for the collection I can check with our agent there to see if we can get the equipment and load 3/9/13 and then supply the cost.
Thanks.
