Timber Freight Management
At Paragon Freight Management, we are specialist movers of timber and wood products across the UK and Europe. Whether you’re importing raw materials, exporting processed timber, or moving regulated species, we provide compliant, efficient, and reliable transport tailored to the forestry and timber trade.
Timber logistics demand more than just haulage—they require in-depth knowledge of border controls, regulatory inspections, and environmental compliance. We support the safe movement of timber by road and sea, managing everything from flatbed and out-of-gauge loads to containerised shipments, with collection from port and container de-vanning included where needed.
We are registered with the Forestry Commission and offer full support with CITES certificates and IBF inspections, ensuring that regulated timber products—such as tropical hardwoods—meet all import/export controls. We also provide consultancy and logistics coordination for shipments subject to SPS (Sanitary and Phytosanitary) controls, including Phyto certificates and stops at Border Control Posts (BCPs).
Our timber services include:
- UK and EU road freight for timber, planks, boards, and poles
- Import/export customs clearance with CITES and SPS compliance
- Coordination of Forestry Commission and BCP inspections
- Support with Plant Health requirements and Phytosanitary documentation
- Flexible delivery options using flatbeds, Hi-ab cranes, and out-of-gauge trailers
As an AEO-accredited logistics provider, we minimise delays and streamline customs processes for all regulated timber movements. We also offer the option to offset carbon emissions from your timber freight—helping you maintain environmental commitments across your supply chain.
Whether you’re moving sawn timber, fencing, joinery components, or regulated wood species, Paragon Freight Management delivers dependable, compliant solutions tailored to the timber industry.
