In order to import and transport certain goods, you need to work with a company who offers Customs bonded services. Here’s why: Imported freight often requires inspection and release by the US Customs office before it can be transported to its destination. It would be impossible for US Customs officials to wait at the offloading point to inspect and process the paperwork onsite for every imported good. Instead, they work together with transportation and warehousing operators who can receive and hold the imports until they have been inspected and released for delivery. How it works: A trucking company retrieves imported goods and transports them to an approved US Customs bonded warehouse facility. The US Customs office approves the goods for release. (This is often done electronically, rather than via physical inspection, which speeds up the process.) The trucking company delivers the goods to their owner or trustee. In short, moving certain imported goods means you need to use a Customs bonded facility and a Customs bonded trucking company. At Bridgetown Trucking, we do both. Our warehouse facilities and our trucking services are Customs bonded. If you need to move imported goods, we can make sure they get inspected, released, and transported quickly and efficiently.

A facility can only become an approved Customs bonded provider if it meets all of the following criteria: The operator of the facility must be approved by the US Customs office after submitting an application. The facility must establish an area strictly for the use of holding and protecting goods. The facility must prove both operational and financial integrity.
