Transport to UK fairs, from vans to oversized

How to match the means of transport to UK fairs to the size of the exhibit: van, groupage, FTL, flatbed or low loader, with customs and an ATA carnet.

Full fair support in the UK starts with matching transport to the exhibit: a van for small shipments, groupage LTL for a few pallets, FTL for a full truck, and for oversized cargo a flatbed or low loader (BDE). OPTIMUS TRANSPORT adds post-Brexit customs and an ATA carnet.

Matching the means

  • Van — fast delivery of small exhibits and materials.
  • Groupage LTL — from one pallet, combined into a full load.
  • FTL — a whole stand or larger cargo.
  • Flatbed / low loader — stands and oversized cargo.
An ATA carnet is temporary admission without duty and VAT for goods returning in full.
