How the service works
Three ways to work with Amovita
Choose the package that matches how you import. All three are quoted on request and we will show customs, transport and any additional charges as separate lines so you can see exactly what you are paying for.
Amovita Import Assist
Customs clearance plus port collection and delivery to your warehouse or premises. The straightforward option if you import full container loads and want one supplier for the whole journey.
Amovita Import & Distribute
Customs clearance, port collection, warehouse handling where required, and palletised distribution to multiple UK destinations. Suited to wholesalers and retailers importing consolidated shipments and serving a number of customers.
Amovita Transport Only
Port collections, full loads, part loads, pallet deliveries and dedicated vehicle movements, for customers who already have their own customs clearance arrangements. It is also how freight forwarders use us as their UK delivery partner.
How we operate
Who moves the goods
Amovita arranges the physical transport through established, appropriately insured hauliers and pallet networks rather than running our own fleet. We take the booking, coordinate the port handover, and remain your single point of contact for the movement. Capacity scales with demand instead of being fixed by vehicles we have bought.
What we need from you
- Container number and the bill of lading or booking reference.
- The port of arrival and the delivery address, including any site access or booking restrictions.
- Confirmation of which carrier or shipping line the container belongs to, so we can request the correct release and return.
- Notice of any hazardous, temperature-controlled or out-of-gauge cargo, so we can confirm suitability before booking.
Charges outside the agreed rate
Waiting time, failed delivery, re-delivery, out-of-hours work and port-related costs are quoted separately and transparently. We confirm in advance whether an empty container return is required and show it as its own line, so you are never surprised by the final invoice.
