r8rs4lf Posted January 4, 2007 Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 So how long did it take? I work on the docks here in LA/LB and was just wondering how long something like that takes on a ship? Also, where did it ship from and exactly where did it ship to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eamonnschevy Posted January 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 4, 2007 So how long did it take? I work on the docks here in LA/LB and was just wondering how long something like that takes on a ship? Also, where did it ship from and exactly where did it ship to? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Shipping is the easy part, Clearing Customs both ends is what appears to take the time.. i dropped it off at the Shippers on December 4th, but due to Christmas and new year its now due to leave Miami (i've since found out that Miami are one of the hardest ports to ship from) on the 14th Jan and arrive at Thamesport London UK on the 26th Jan. then 4-6 days to clear UK Customs. so my truck will have taken about 8 weeks (but that includes 2 weeks of holidays ), most of the trucks i've imported take between 4 and 7 weeks so it's not too bad considering the time of year... Soon be here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
