Josh was quick to arrange an overnight dedicated van delivery from Essex to Aberdeen. Good value and delivered in good time with proof provided of receipt by 9am next day. Thank you :-)

Freight to Southern Ireland

Sending something to Southern Ireland is a nightmare, contacted several companies and Barrington, although not the cheapest, was very professional and saved a lot of stress ensuring all the paperwork etc was correct.
A smooth export was achieved , happy customer and my sanity intact.

Impeccable Service

I just received a cargo load from China to the UK and had an outstanding experience with this airfreight company. From start to finish, everything was smooth, efficient, and handled with real care. I especially want to give a massive shoutout to Simon Poole, who went above and beyond to make sure everything was coordinated perfectly.

He kept me updated every step of the way, answered all my questions promptly, and genuinely made the entire process stress-free. It’s rare to find this level of professionalism and personal attention in logistics, and I couldn’t be happier with the service I received.

Highly recommend this company if you want peace of mind with your shipments—I’ll definitely be using them again. Thanks again, Simon!

Barrington Freight highly recommended

Barrington Freight handled my shipment of sculpture from the UK to Belgium with clarity, professionalism and speed. The price was competitive and the goods arrived at their destination with 24hrs, which was impressive.

Thanks again for entrusting Barrington Freight with your sculptures as we can only imagine how much time and effort went into producing those! The photos look amazing and we're glad we could be a part of this project.

Road quote for Dublin

Shocking response for a simple quote request I sent online to ship a commercial shipment from the UK to Ireland. After giving all the details to Barringtons, I received a very impersonal and poorly constructed message advising that Company Policy does not allow Barrington to quote for a commercial shipment. If so, what type of shipments do you move ??

The good news was that the message also advised that a 'human' had made this decision. Clearly not a human who knows how to run a business.

Reply from Barrington Freight

Thank you for your feedback. We’d like to clarify that commercial freight is our core business, and the statement in our response was not intended to suggest otherwise.
Your request for a dedicated trailer was submitted just three days before the Christmas shutdown period, which is an exceptionally busy time for the logistics industry. Due to high demand and limited availability during this period, we were unable to accommodate your request.
The message you received was generated through our semi-automated system, based on a decision made by our team to manage capacity effectively. We appreciate your understanding of the constraints during peak periods.
If you have further questions or would like to discuss this in more detail, please feel free to contact us directly.

Fantastic company

Fantastic company. We've used many freight handlers and shippers over the years, and been frequently disappointed and frustrated. The small team at Barrington are intelligent, attentive, and accommodating of our sometimes difficult requirements. I expect we will be using them for many years to come.

A first time experience importing Goods…

A first time experience importing Goods from South Africa into the United Kingdom- Repackaging Services UK began researching months in advance with an overall objective to find a Freight Forwarding Company who not only had good competitive rates but an Agent who had the Patience, Integrity and Understanding to walk Us through this process from the beginning to end. Initially the Task of Searching was daunting, intensive and extensive which involved many communications and comparative quotations. The Outcome: We chose Simon at BARRINGTON FREIGHT.
We believe the established rapport has stood us in good stead for the next import! Our thanks and appreciation comes with a Highly Recommendable Rating for Simon at Barrington Freight.co.uk including Team Members Lee Pottle and Carriann Everard -Accounts. Thank you

Easy to do Business With!!

Easy of doing business, communication and transparency every time we have dealt with Lee, Joshua and Barringtons.
Our most recent job was importing 1 pallet at short notice and this proved to be no issue whatsoever.

Great service!

The service from your staff is great, and a particular mention to Lee who organised a shipment for us - he communicated very well, and got our goods delivered a day early!

EU Exhibition events

We have used Barrington Frieght now for several EU exhibitions in Copenhagen-Barcelona-Italy and highly recommended them. Attention to detail-accurate information about drivers-pricing-timing everything top notch.
Lee and the team really do look after us and take the pressure off. Here’s to many more hi profile worldwide brands booking our Unique Interactive gaming devices including “Cyclone Game”.

Couldn't really fault them

Couldn't really fault them, fast turn round of information, even as I kept changing the size of shipment items, patiently waited for me to get an EORI number, and shipment was picked and delivered to programme
Thank you Lee
