THE TOYOTA HILUX (Kukuza) HAS ARRIVED IN EUROPE!

After a long long wait, KUKUZA has finally arrived in Valence, France!! We are super happy and at time of writing this post we have just left France and entered into Italy.

We started this shipping process in March 2018. Handed the vehicle over to Seabrook Freight and Handling (Shipping agents) and were promised the vehicle in April. Oh my word what a mess and what terrible service from this bunch of fools! Their website looks very professional, but under the skin lies an inept group of individuals with poor communication and no sense of urgency whatsoever.

Why I say the above is that the Agent failed to check and confirm the documentation process for Temporary Importation of a
vehicle  into the EU zone. This resulted in our vehicle being refused entry by Belgium customs. With a professional shipping agent this could have all been avoided. We were delayed by ove 1.5 months and had to delay our departure from the 27th May to the 3rd of June. Stay away from SEABROOK (or Sharpshipping) where possible – you have been warned!

I do recommend a company called CARLOGISTIX if shipping into Europe – brilliant !!   http://www.carlogistix.be/
