Below are some case studies of both companies and individuals who have shipped with TIC.

Luke Simpson – Director of Small Limited Company

“Our business has been rapidly expanding and we have recently found a massive increase in the enquiries for the export of our stock.

As a business with relatively no experience in the movement of stock abroad we found it a daunting task to organise the shipment of our stock overseas.

When contacting TIC Shipping, a firm recommended to us, we found their information on the exportation of stock extremely informative. When asking for a price, unlike other freight forwarders they responded within the hour and giving a total price, making it extremely easy to quote our customer knowing just what it would cost us.

After doing some comparison work, we couldn’t find any better price or company offering such a level of help and understanding for a business new to this type of work. At this point we made the booking with TIC and were thrilled to hear the container would be with us the following morning. Once loaded it was plain sailing from there on, with everything from customs entry to the Bill of Laden provided in the cost.

Since sending this container we have never looked back, and continue to work with TIC Shipping to this day.”

Alan Morgan – Export Manager of Medium Sized Organisation

“As a business sending 10 to 15 containers a month to regular customers we were starting to find our current freight forwarder becoming unreliable and not offering a service to meet our demands. Looking for something more we made an effort to contact a number of business that we hoped would offer a better service.

TIC Shipping understood our situation and took down the relevant information to quote us for our best customer in the middle east. By the next morning we came in to find an email outlaying the best price offered along with a transit time, not wanting to make any decisions without first seeing other companies quotes we wanted to wait. It quickly became apparent that TIC Shipping had offered the best price.

When making the booking for the 7 containers all of our requirements for times of loading were met with no problems. Over the course of the next 5 days the containers arrived spot on time meaning the shipment was completed within the necessary time scale with all customs documents completed.”

Kenny Osude - International Relocation

“We were looking to relocate from the UK to West Africa and needed to find a reliable freight forwarder that could offer an all in one service. We contacted two other freight forwards prior to speaking to TIC and on both occasions found the total price quoted changed repeatedly.
After speaking to Ashley at TIC Shipping and providing all our relevant information he was able to provide a total final cost within the hour.

All aspects such as packaging to shipping were clearly displayed in the final price, making it easy to see exactly what we were paying for.

After choosing the loading date, all documentation and UK customs clearance were efficiently handled. With Ashley’s help we found an excellent clearing agent who assisted with the final customs clearance….

Thanks to everyone at TIC for taking the stress out of international relocation.”
