Having left the EU, we were at a loss as to how to navigate the rules & regulations involved in sending goods into the EU. We contacted Cargo Express, and they were diamonds! Joseph worked tirelessly on our behalf, and thanks to his dogged determination, ensured nothing was left to chance. The consignment arrived safely and on time! I’d not hesitate in using Cargo Express again!
