How to Book a Logistics Service Through UCARGO: Your Essential Q&A Guide

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.


What information do I need to provide when enquiring?

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:

  • Commodity and technical specifications

  • Dimensions and weight (essential for oversized cargo logistics)

  • 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.


What happens after I submit my enquiry?

Once received, your enquiry is reviewed by a UCARGO project logistics specialist. They will:

  1. Confirm missing data

  2. Identify operational risks or market-specific restrictions

  3. Verify routing and equipment requirements

  4. Provide a competitive quotation

  5. Outline all compliance requirements

For challenging destinations, UCARGO offers guidance for country-specific systems such as SABER, additional permits, or certificates of origin — ensuring smooth clearance and zero delays.


How is my shipment managed once confirmed?

After accepting the quote, your project transitions into active management. UCARGO assigns a dedicated coordinator to oversee every aspect of your international cargo movement, including:

  • Creating a shipment-specific critical path

  • Booking airline, vessel, or dedicated transport

  • Coordinating with global logistics partners

  • Managing export customs and import clearance

  • Organising cranes, forklifts, low loaders, or flatbeds as required

  • Providing real-time updates for time-sensitive freight

This end-to-end handling ensures seamless execution throughout the entire logistics chain.


What tracking or updates can I expect?

UCARGO offers flexible tracking formats to suit your operational workflow:

  • Live updates on shipment milestones

  • Daily or weekly progress sheets

  • Event-driven status reporting

  • Increased frequency as cargo approaches delivery

  • Direct communication with your assigned coordinator

This level of visibility is essential for industries such as exhibitions, entertainment logistics, and large-scale commercial projects.

  • Commercial invoices

  • Packing lists

  • Certificates of Origin (COO)

  • Temporary admission or ATA Carnet guidance
