abarson Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 I have my eye on a speaker in stock at Blue Aran, but they won't ship it to the US. Their website mentions using a freight forwarder to handle this. Does anyone here have experience with freight forwarding as well as recommended providers of such a service?

Cliff Edge Posted April 14, 2021 Share Posted April 14, 2021 (edited) In real life I was a freight forwarder for many years. I’m now retired. A freight forwarder is the intermediary between the seller and the the shipping company, be that sea or air freight. It takes care of documentation and arranging the shipping overseas. It may also liaise with a similar company overseas to handle import documentation,, duties etc, and possibly transport and delivery to the consignee. Basically taking all this off the hands of the seller, for a fee. And there are plenty of them, especially near major ports. Blue Aran may already have one they use.
