Sussex Transport is working in partnership with Flightstore Ltd, a UKWA member company.
The 26,000 sq ft warehouse in Gatwick road, Crawley, is the closest custom clearance warehouse facility to London’s Gatwick Airport. It offers our customers the ability to defer VAT payments on imported goods, until they have been sold.
Damian Pulford MD of Sussex Transport says “this is a perfect partnership, bringing together all aspects of import services for our growing number of e-commerce clients”
As a dedicated road haulage provider, Sussex Transport can boast an increase in O’ Licence from 10-20 vehicles with more vehicles currently on order to cope with increased business demands.
A sameday London delivery service is available for those urgent orders as well as a European express pallet service.
With Surrey Road Haulage their sister company based near Dorking, Sussex Transport can also offer clients a Pick and Pack e-commerce fulfilment for air freight and custom clearance weakness
