Why We’re Your Next Logistics Partner

Universal Cargo takes as much care with your small shipments as your big ones. Our Express4Air service is right for you if you’re looking for a “sample” shipment with no commitment to a larger one. Universal Cargo can ship 25kg to 100kg packages almost anywhere in the world in 3 to 5 days, making Express4Air a quick, simple and complete service.

You choose importing and exporting by air because speed is a priority. You know that freight-forwarded by air gets to its destination faster than by any other method, and also that customs, inspections and cargo handling is considerably quicker when packages are sent by air. The reliability and safety of air shipping are usually impossible to obtain by any other method.

Even so, there are times when fast isn’t fast enough — and it’s those times when our Express4Air service is what you need.

  • I would strongly recommend UC for cargo shipping. The sales staff is efficient regarding rate quotes and advising as to future, seasonal rate changes. My operations executive keeps me apprised of cargo movement and delays.

    Michele
  • When we started our business in 2004 Universal Cargo was the freight forwarder our vendor used and we have used other forwarders due to the fact our suppliers supplied the freight and the majority of those have been a problem so we appreciate all that you have done for us and hopefully you feel the same about us.

    Jeff
  • All went smoothly, considering that we had too much weight for a 40’ High Cube. The problem was resolved. I have been satisfied with your service and would have no problem recommending your services to others.

    Irwin

    Bobby
  • My experience with UC has been terrific. As a start-up business, I had no idea what I was doing when we first contacted UC to help us bring our inventory into the US, and they took care of everything for us. From arranging the shipment and landing it and getting it through customs, to trucking it to our warehouse, they provide a turnkey solution.

    Randy
  • We have been very satisfied with the service we have received from UC. The rates are very competitive.

    Sandra

They have helped our company understand the freight world and through there service has helped us to grow through out the years. Great Job!

    Jerry
  • The freight quote was given immediately after it was asked, I really liked that. Very good customer service whenever I have cargos in question. I would recommend UC to others if they ever need freight quotes and forwarders.

    Jenny
  • Universal Cargo has always been very easy to work with. They handle our shipments without hassle – from port to my dock – all inclusive. As a small business owner, this helps to free up time for me to accomplish other tasks. Brian Chan is always on top of our containers, and any problems are solved quickly.

    Scott
  • We have been dealing with UC for many years – with both the California and Georgia offices. All are very helpful, detail oriented, and courteous. Because of these economic times, we shop rates and services on a regular basis. UC wins many of our bid requests.

    Sandra
  • I am going to re-affirm information that you already know, what a tremendous employee you have in Kellee Mallord.  She is one of the most kind, giving and efficient people I have had the pleasure of doing business with.  No matter what issue I have she always finds out what I need to know.  Kellee is always on top of CCI's shipments and lets me know immediately if there are any changes.

    Jodi
  • Kellee also looks at business from not only a UC representative, but also for protecting the client's bottom line.  Which as you aware, makes your customers much more appreciative and wanting to make UC as their business partners. Just a friendly reminder of the treasure you have in her. Thank you all very much for everything you do for CCI.

    Jodi
  • I would like to thank you all for exemplary service. I am relatively new to importing my system components from Asia, and my first experience was literally a nightmare(s). Now I know all I have to do is send my supplier a purchase order and copy you guys on it; it then miraculously arrives at my dock door on or ahead of schedule. Thank you all so much! I am so glad that Devin found me at the HPB Expo.

    John
  • Thanks Erick I hope  you enjoy thanksgiving as well, we also enjoy working with you and Kelly.  You both make my job easier and I am grateful for that.

    Jerry
  • I have been working with Universal Cargo on/off just about 4 years.  Business has picked up, so I was in need of service. Angel Choi and Erick Constantino have shown service above and beyond the call of duty. Angel and Erick never hesitated to answer questions or concerns, and treated me as I would treat my customer base, with professionalism, and courtesy. I wanted you to hear this, as you have very good people working for you, and I will not hesitate to recommend Universal Cargo.

    Gerry
  • Kellee, as usual you are an incredibly awesome person to work with!!!! I hope your employer appreciated the HELL out of you and pays you accordingly!!! It is such a treat to deal with you!

    Russ
  • Within the first hour of inquiry, a representative has contacted me with viable information and relevant questions to further my objective in fright forwarding. Very satisfied with timeliness and directness.

    Igor
  • I am completely unknowledgeable about shipping freight internationally. The representative educated me and helped me to understand exactly what I needed. I would definitely recommend them.

    Jessie
  • Universal Cargo handled my container from Las Vegas to Brisbane Australia. They were clear on paperwork required and everything worked as planned. Overall an excellent result!

    Richard
  • Used them for a part of my container ship from India. I was very happy with everyone involved. I will be using Universal Cargo for the entire shipping process from now on.

    Joe
  • "In 2007 I became aware of the horrendous atrocity against humanity called human trafficking. I was shocked to learn that child sex trafficking even existed and was extremely unsettled. During a simple conversation with my sister in law about the horrors of child sex trafficking she told me that the USA Director of Zoe Children’s Home, Betsy Meenk was speaking that very next Sunday at her church right after their service. I went, met Betsy and learned about this amazing organization. I have traveled to the ZOE home in Chiang Mai, Thailand, three times and have been able to not only help but to observe and experience the awesome work they are doing there to rescue and restore these children to wholeness."

    Shirley Burke President
  • "We support ZOE and iEmpathize because we believe human trafficking is one of the biggest travesties in society today.   It is not only the largest form of slavery in history, but it currently is the largest industry in the world passing up the porn industry.  There are several ministries and NGO’s making a difference to eradicate this huge problem.  But we have been involved with both enough to witness firsthand what great work they are doing.  While iEmpathize focuses on the educational side of this issue Zoe has a very successful orphanage and school in Thailand as well as a new safe house in LA. We have visited their Thailand operations in Chang Mai several times and were touched and blown away."

This is why we use Universal Cargo for all our shipments from Indonesia to the U.S.

    CANINE CLEANUP
  • Kellee has always been great about keeping us up to date on all the shipping information.

    GREEN ACRES OUTDOOR LIVING
  • Universal Cargo must work on their supply chain. The different departments do not hand-off the shipping process properly. Often we begin working with an agent and by the time we have received our shipment we have dealt with a total of 3 different representatives from the company. We also have to take an active role ensuring the processes are completed properly. This is unacceptable for a freight forwarder who should be owning the process and interfacing with us through one representative.
