Why Importers Choose Platton Over a Traditional Freight Broker

Common Questions About Platton
Platton runs the full import move for US importers: carrier booking at origin, ocean or air transit, US customs clearance through licensed brokers, drayage from the port, and delivery to your warehouse. You manage it through one point of contact and one dashboard instead of separate vendors for each leg.
Your customs entry is filed with CBP by a licensed customs broker. Platton is the freight forwarder that runs the shipment around that filing: it prepares the documentation, files ISF, and coordinates the entry through licensed customs brokers, so one team manages the move from origin booking to final delivery.
The main lanes are China, Vietnam, and India to the US, plus Europe. Cargo lands at every major US gateway (LA/Long Beach, New York and New Jersey, Savannah, Houston, Seattle, and others), with local drayage and delivery in 30 US metros.
A traditional broker books space and goes quiet. Platton holds direct carrier relationships, locks rates at booking, files customs through licensed brokers, and shows every shipment in real time, so you are not chasing status or finding out about a delay after demurrage has started.
All of it. Ocean and air freight, customs clearance, drayage and trucking, bonded warehousing, buyers consolidation, ecommerce fulfillment, and Amazon FBA prep run on one file, so cargo does not stall between handoffs.
