CROSS-TRADE FREIGHT

European Freight, No UK Routing Required

Cross-trade shipping moves cargo directly between European countries without touching the UK. Faster transits, lower costs and daily departures across road, sea and multi-modal services, all managed by one named Plexus Freight coordinator.

Our cross-trade shipping service moves cargo directly between European countries such as Portugal to France or Italy to Germany without routing through Great Britain, saving you unnecessary costs, transit time, and complexity. Since 1996, we have partnered with dependable European freight operators to cover all major corridors using road, sea, and multi-modal transport. We handle all cargo types and sizes, from single pallets on a groupage service to full, dedicated trailer loads. With daily departures on core routes, our operations team manages everything from collections and border formalities to final delivery so you only need a single point of contact.

One of the fastest-growing areas of our cross-trade operation is urgent and time-specific express freight. Businesses across Europe increasingly need same-day, next-day or 48-hour cross-trade solutions for production-critical components, perishable goods and last-minute stock movements. We have invested significantly in our express cross-trade capability, giving us access to thousands of vehicles across the continent, from SWB sprinters and Luton vans with tail lifts through to full artic trailers with dedicated drivers available at short notice.

Where budget takes priority over speed, our cross-trade groupage and full or part load options deliver reliable transit times at significantly lower cost than dedicated transport. We cover Spain, Portugal, Germany, Italy, Poland and the wider European network, using specialist equipment including Moffats, HIABs, flatbed trailers and tail-lift vehicles to handle whatever your cargo demands at the point of delivery.
