International
Overview
DX International is our convenient and versatile service enabling our DX Freight customers to despatch international delivery items into Europe, or globally, alongside their regular domestic deliveries.
...
DX International comprises four services:
- European Road Express - a fully tracked, door-to-door, road-based delivery service into Europe, with certain size and weight limitations;
- Global Air Express - a fully tracked, door-to-door, global delivery service, again with certain size & weight limitations;
- International Pallets & Freight - a bespoke export and import global delivery service tailored to your specific requirements using air, deep sea or road resources. Our dedicated International Helpdesk is highly knowledgeable in all modes of freight transport, via air, road or sea and will assist you in deciding which is the best option for you. They will then negotiate highly competitive rates for exporting to and importing from your destination.
DX International consignments are collected by your regular, local DX Service Centre and trunked into our hub at London Heathrow. From there they are passed to our international partner, Norsk, who image and scan all items before preparing them for export. All you have to do is prepare the label through our easy-to-use DM6 web-based booking system.
It guides you to produce pro-forma and commercial invoices and stores all the information so that you can build and maintain a database of your international customers and your transactions with them.
Should you need assistance, our specialist International team is available to support you in preparing the invoicing and documentation required for your goods to leave the UK.
You can monitor the progress of your consignments to their international destinations using our online tracking system.
