Flexible
Being part of the worldwide Mission Express network of agents allows us to carry out most requests. We are transparent about our approach and will make it happen. Excalibur stands out for its flexibility, adapting to the unique needs of each client and shipment. Whether you're facing sudden changes in demand or specific handling requirements, our team is ready to pivot and create customized solutions.
Efficient
Having access to AITA Airline accounts and Mission Express agent accounts, in addition to our attentive staff to process export and import requests, makes the process easy. Excalibur is built on efficiency, streamlining every step of the logistics process to save you time and resources. Our seasoned team utilizes advanced technology and optimized workflows to ensure prompt deliveries and minimal delays.
Reliable
We have staff monitoring emails and jobs throughout the entire process. Being accountable and in contact with our agents to collect and deliver your shipment is paramount to this process. If you need an update or have any questions, you will not get an operator who is reading a computer screen, you will get a real person who knows about your shipment and is able to help you right away.

Whether its domestic or international air cargo, we have the experience to get your shipment to its destination.
For domestic, we offer both express cargo and general cargo service options. With express cargo, your shipment will be placed on the next flight available. General cargo can take between 2-5 days depending on the destination.
Our international courier service utilizes our secure network of agents, which allows your shipment to reach any country within the EU. We are up to date with customs regulations. We also offer international freight to Sydney, Johannesburg, Vancouver, Toronto, and others.
Artwork Industry
At Excalibur we offer 2 packing options:
1. Bubble wrap and packing materials inside a custom-sized corrugated cardboard strong box.
2. Foam-lined custom wood crate with an A-frame forklift-friendly base.
Having our own shop to build crates and custom pack items keeps the cost down for you. We are a one stop shop for packing and shipping artwork.

We can offer direct air cargo or road services to many of the well-known art shows.

Customs
We supply a customs POA (power of attorney) for you to complete and you leave the rest to us! We also produce carnets for export and import customs clearance, avoiding duties and taxes. This is a service we regularly provide to our customers who send high value items.
