Pet Transportation

Relocation held to airline and veterinary standards - because a pet is never just cargo.

Live Animals Are Never Treated As General Cargo

Our pet division operates its own vehicles, crates, handlers and documentation process, independent of freight operations. Every animal travels in a ventilated, temperature-regulated bay, is checked at each scheduled stop, and is signed over to a named recipient on arrival.

Six Stages, Fully Documented

01

Consultation

We review species, breed, age, route and destination rules, then confirm what is required and what it will cost.

02

Veterinary Clearance

Vaccinations, microchip checks and health certification scheduled inside the destination country's validity window.

03

Permits & Bookings

Import permits filed, airline or vehicle space reserved and the travel crate delivered for acclimation.

04

Collection

A trained handler collects from your address, completes a welfare check and secures the crate in a temperature-regulated bay.

05

Monitored Transit

Progress, temperature and welfare checks are logged against your tracking reference and shared at each milestone.

06

Arrival & Handover

Customs and quarantine formalities completed, then handover to a named recipient with photographic confirmation.

What We Will Not Compromise On

Animal welfare governs every routing decision we make. If a route, season or aircraft type is not appropriate for the animal, we will say so and propose an alternative rather than book it.

No sedation. Sedatives are unsafe at altitude and are never administered.
Embargo awareness. Heat and cold embargoes are respected without exception.
Snub-nosed breed policy. Brachycephalic animals travel only on approved routes and equipment.
Single-journey handling. Animals are not consolidated with unrelated cargo movements.

Pet Relocation, Answered Plainly

How far in advance should we book?
For international moves, four to eight weeks is typical because rabies titre tests and import permits have fixed lead times. Domestic ground relocations can often be arranged within a week.
Can we travel on the same flight as our pet?
Where the airline permits accompanied travel on your route, we will book it and handle the check-in formalities. Where it does not, your pet travels as manifest cargo with the same welfare standards and our handler present at the terminal.
What documents will you need from us?
Vaccination records, microchip number, pet passport where one exists, and identification for the sending and receiving parties. We prepare everything else, including health certificates and import permits.
Will we know where our pet is during transit?
Yes. Each relocation is issued a GLCE tracking reference that shows milestone updates on our tracking page, and your coordinator sends direct confirmation at collection, departure and arrival.
Is the animal insured?
Specialist live-animal cover can be arranged alongside the booking. Terms, limits and veterinary cost provisions are confirmed in writing before travel.
