When you turn to BCR for customs assistance, you receive the utmost care from one of the oldest and most pre-eminent Customs Brokerages in Australia. In fact, we were one of the first Australian Customs brokers. In Sydney in 1902, BCR forerunner Frank Cridland Pty Ltd. received corporate licence number 31 following the passing of the Customs Act in 1901.
If packaging and distribution is not a core competency at your organisation, your fulfilment and storage may require an overhaul for peak performance and profitability. There are a few approaches to this eventuality, from the individual contracting of different freighting, shipping and delivery companies, this can be time-consuming and strain budgetary delegations over time however.
Exporting goods to another country is a complex process, involving many parties with many rules, approvals and compliance procedures to follow. If you already export as a small- to medium-sized business or you are new to exporting, you can save time and money with BCR professional export services. We are experts in Australian export regulations as well as import rules and regulations of foreign countries.

Positive: Professionalism, Responsiveness
I have previously used the services of larger known logistic companies but am not getting the customer service I need. I requested a quote through the BCR website and Kiril promptly called me to discuss my options. Although BCR could not assist me with my needs, Kiril did steer me in the right direction which was very helpful.

Kiril was very informative and willing to help explain the process so I have more of an understanding of how it all works. Very helpful, personable and genuine! Thank you.

Few weeks ago i was scrolling through and reading posts in review just like you're doing now, i had no intention of investing a penny in Bitcoin plateform. i just enjoyed reading testimonies of different people making thousands of dollars in Bitcoin investment, it all seem like a play, it was just too good to be true.. Then i thought to myself, what if this is it? what if this is my only way of earning without having to work all day and night-shifts. I took a bold step to invest with mr GEORGE KELVIN who i've read so much good reports about. i invested $500 as risk in his Bitcoins investment service

Excellent Team of professionals, who are equipped to handle all our freight forwarding needs. This is our 5th year in business together, and BCR have never let us down!! As our business grows and our volume increases, BCR have not had a problem handling this.

On behalf of The Mad Hueys I would like to genuinely thank the entire BCR team for their hard work and support. BCR have been handling our freight forwarding and 3PL warehouse for a while now, regularly going well above and beyond our expectations as a client. I also need to acknowledge from my own personal observations the great people and great culture within BCR with those extra efforts, volunteer time, and paying care and attention to our business needs as if it were their own not going unnoticed and again really genuinely appreciated. Keep up the outstanding work and look forward to continue

I've dealt with BCR for a few of my shipments now (not via Sea Freight & AirCargo), and they have been professional, responsive and friendly every step of the way! Would definitely recommend them and use them for my future shipments again!

I have been dealing with BCR for many years. I have always found their service to be exceptional outdone only by the people. The collective knowledge of the staff and their willingness to go the extra mile makes dealing with BCR a pleasure.

When issues were escalated to BCR, the resolutions provided were inadequate, untimely, and incomplete. We sent over 100 emails to BCR raising issues relating to the poor quality of the warehousing services. Overall the customer service is horrible.
When containers arrived, they were unpacked late and we were charged additional fees from our freight company.
When containers were unpacked the inventory levels recorded in their system were grossly inaccurate. We found that when an item showed as in stock in their system, when it was time to dispatch they advised the stock was not available. Our
