Taylors Courier Service runs a full export packing service for goods under our export packing service. We arrive with the materials, pack on site, and take the goods away the same visit.
This page is written for businesses shipping goods that have to arrive fit for use, not merely intact. Export-grade preparation: packing (crating arranged where needed), labelling, weights and dimensions recorded, and a packing list that matches what is actually in the load.
We photograph the goods packed before departure on request, so the condition at the point of loading is a matter of record rather than opinion.

Frequently asked questions
Do you supply the export documentation?
We prepare the transport documentation and the packing list, and we will talk you through what a customs broker or your buyer will need. We are hauliers and packers, not a customs agent, so where formal clearance is required we work alongside your broker rather than pretending to replace them.
Can you crate on site?
Crating can be arranged where a piece genuinely needs it. Whether it is done on site or prepared beforehand, and the cost, is confirmed at quotation before we start. We do not offer specialist conservation packing.
How much does it cost?
Guide prices for this service start at Instant Quote. Crated, high-value, oversized or time-critical consignments priced on the specifics. The final figure depends on collection location, destination, dimensions, weight, declared value, packing complexity, urgency and any special requirements — message us with the details and we will send a firm number.
How quickly can you collect?
Collection is usually arranged within 60–90 minutes for urgent same-day work in mainland Great Britain during working hours, and on a booked date for planned European shipments. Tell us your deadline and we will tell you honestly whether it is achievable.
