What is an International Freight Forwarder?

Vantage Point Services is an international freight forwarding company that specializes in the planning and coordination of moving goods across international borders. We are similar to a "travel agent" for cargo. We arrange transportation via air, sea, rail and over the road. We manage the international documentation, customs clearance, and insurance to ensure efficient, compliant delivery.

Key aspects of international freight forwarding include:

  • Logistics Coordination: Organizing multi-modal transport (e.g., trucking to a port, then shipping by ocean).
  • Documentation & Compliance: Preparing crucial documents like Bills of Lading, airway bills, and customs invoices to meet international trade regulations.
  • Customs Brokerage: Handling the clearance process to avoid delays at borders.
  • Consolidation: Combining smaller shipments from different shippers into one container to reduce costs.
  • Warehousing & Delivery: We can coordinate the storage and delivery of the cargo once it released by customs.
  • Exporting Cargo to Most Worldwide Locations:
  • Domestic Transportation with the USA, Alaska and Hawaii:

As an international freight forwarder, Vantage Point Services manages all of your supply chain complexities, helping businesses optimize routes, and reducing overall shipping costs.
