Gibraltar

It may be small, but it is an important outpost, continually contested with Spain as to its sovereignty.

Service Information

Gibraltar is a British Overseas Territory located on the southern end of the Iberian Peninsula at the entrance of the Mediterranean. Densely populated, it has an area of 2.6 square miles and is home to more than 30,000 Gibraltarians and other nationalities. To the north, it borders the Province of Cadiz in Andalusia, Spain. A popular location for British holiday makers, considering the size of its territory, the volume of exports to Gibraltar is relatively high, and this continues throughout the year.

Our road freight service to Gibraltar

Considering the size of this outpost, there is a surprising amount of freight of all kinds being sent to Gibraltar.

Considering the size and narrowness of many of the roads in Gibraltar, a large proportion of deliveries are made on small vehicles equipped with small cranes, and often fork lift truck hire needs providing, charged by the hour.

A few years ago we transported the island’s New Year firework display, ironically only to watch our efforts go up in smoke some hours after arrival!

Key tip

Important to note, the commodity and the commercial invoice is required at the time of booking, and should the final delivery point be the Ministry of Defence, this information is also required.

And, if you are new at shipping to Gibraltar and you’ve not applied for a EORI number, you need to complete an application to obtain one. Our team will be pleased to advise the procedures, but the ‘official’ information can be found at the HMRC website. Saying that, I’d expect that with the last few years of turmoil with Brexit, most companies have now been ‘force-fed’ an EORI number!

Thanks to Derek

Phil. I would like you to pass on my thanks to Derek Heap. On Friday night and Saturday, Derek helped solve a problem on a delivery to Milan – it was much appreciated. If the delivery had failed, it would have caused severe problems for one of our major clients. Thanks again.
