If you’re heading into 2026 and looking ahead to plan all your logistics movements — and your business needs a reliable partner for specialist freight forwarding, heavy cargo movement, or global event logistics — understanding how to book services efficiently is crucial. UCARGO delivers end-to-end B2B logistics solutions, supporting industries with complex, time-sensitive, or oversized shipments across the world.
This Q&A guide breaks down exactly how to book your next shipment with UCARGO — from first enquiry to final delivery.
To ensure accurate pricing and route planning, UCARGO requires core shipment data at the point of enquiry. Providing these details helps us offer the most efficient B2B logistics service:

Collection & delivery postcodes
Target timelines or fixed live event dates
Documentation requirements for international freight
Packing list, commercial invoice, or photos if required
On-site needs such as lifting equipment, install teams, or timed deliveries
This allows UCARGO to determine the best transport mode — air freight, sea freight, dedicated road freight, or multimodal specialist solutions.
Once received, your enquiry is reviewed by a UCARGO project logistics specialist. They will:
Confirm missing data
Identify operational risks or market-specific restrictions
