Freight Forwarding Company in USA
FMC-licensed international freight forwarder, headquartered in Glendale, California — the contracting party on every shipment we move
American Global Freights is headquartered at 500 N Brand Blvd in Glendale, California, twenty minutes from downtown Los Angeles and under an hour from the Port of Los Angeles/Long Beach — the busiest container complex in the Western Hemisphere. This is where every AGF shipment is contracted: as an FMC-licensed NVOCC we issue our own bills of lading here, hold our carrier contracts here, and clear US imports through our own licensed customs brokers here.
The office is the American end of every lane we sell. Containers from our Foshan office land at Long Beach and are cleared, drayed and delivered from Glendale; vehicles bought at Copart, IAAI and Manheim auctions across the country are consolidated, export-filed and shipped from here to Armenia, Georgia, the UAE and Kazakhstan; European, Indian and Brazilian imports enter at New York, Savannah, Houston and Los Angeles under entries our brokers file.
What a shipper gets from this being a real headquarters rather than a booking desk is accountability in one place. The person who quoted the rate, the broker who filed the entry and the operations manager tracking the container sit on the same floor, and the number below reaches them.
What we handle here
NVOCC contracting and bills of lading
Rates, bookings and our own house bill of lading on every ocean shipment, under FMC licence OTI#031665NF — with direct carrier contracts and co-loading agreements behind them.
US customs brokerage in house
Licensed brokers on staff file ISF and entries, classify under the HTS, handle FDA, USDA, EPA and DOT holds, and review antidumping and countervailing duty scope before you buy rather than after the container lands.
Port operations at Los Angeles/Long Beach
Drayage from the terminals, transloading, warehousing and distribution within reach of the San Pedro Bay ports, and intermodal rail to Chicago and the Midwest.
Export desk
Auction vehicles, machinery and project cargo leaving the USA: title and export-control screening, AES filing, container loading at our partner yards, and routing to the Caucasus, the Gulf and Central Asia.
Nationwide trucking
FTL, LTL and expedited ground transportation across the United States, from port pickup to final delivery at your door.
Where we are
500 N Brand Blvd, Glendale, CA 91203 — on Brand Boulevard just north of the 134 Freeway, about 20 minutes from downtown Los Angeles, 30 minutes from LAX and 45–60 minutes from the Port of Los Angeles/Long Beach terminals.
Plan around
US customs does not process entries on federal holidays; trucking capacity tightens from Thanksgiving to New Year; and Los Angeles/Long Beach peak season runs August to October, when space and equipment are booked earliest. Chinese New Year reaches this office three to four weeks later as an arrival gap.
