SUBMARINER MEMORIAL
Anglo freight, the Southampton based freight forwarding company, were delighted to have been chosen to transport and customs clear a Submariner Memorial which was unveiled by Prince William, Duke of Cambridge in March 2022 at the National Memorial Arboretum.
The monument, which can now be seen at the site located in Alrewas, Staffordshire, was created by the sculptor Paul Day. The prince was quoted as saying “he had created a truly fitting memorial to those lost, and those who may give their lives in years to come.”
Out of Gauge
According to Sebastian Goodman, Commercial Director at Anglo Freight, the transport of this “Out of Gauge” shipment did not come without its challenges. “We not only had to ensure the correct equipment for loading and carrying the piece was used, but also plan the route to avoid obstacles such as low bridges.”
With an experienced team of transport planners and operators at their disposal, the local forwarders were able to successfully guide the piece through customs and on to its “final destination” in good time for the ceremony.
Shipping
Established in 2013, Anglo Freight began operating with the movement of Full Container Loads for their clients between Shenzhen and Southampton. Since then, they have grown to handle shipments to and from any location in the world.
They now welcome new clients with their support for managing the transport of part loads and groupage as well as full container loads and out of gauge shipments. As Sebastian added “We can now move freight using either air, sea or road transport with the support of our worldwide network of agents and brokers. This helps us to ensure a reliable transport service and the efficient customs clearance of goods”.
