The different types of bonded warehouse are private or public and the products they can store differ as to whether it is a dry or wet bonded warehouse.

Here at Fred Davies Storage, we are delighted to have gone through the accreditation process with HMRC and are now officially approved for both wet & dry Custom Control Bonded warehouse facilities at two separate sites in the St Helens area, within Merseyside.

You may NOT realise what it means to be a Bonded vs Non-Bonded storage facility, as there are a number of key advantages: –

  • When you import goods into the UK and store in a non-bonded warehouse, the importer must immediately pay taxes on the goods. This doesn’t apply at any of our bonded warehouses, you have options to help with your cash flow.
  • Dry Bonded Customs Warehouse – Help your cashflow by deferring your customs duty and VAT, but this cannot include alcohol & tobacco.
  • Wet Bonded Customs Warehouse – On imported goods only you have the choice to store in our customs warehouse facility all goods including both alcohol & tobacco. You can defer ALL your customs duties, VAT and excise duties.
  • Choose your option for both short term or long-term storage: –
    • Long term cuts out unnecessary travel, keeps your stock safe & secure whilst building and developing reliable trustworthy relationships with a key supplier.
    • Short Term gives you quick turnaround, with the knowledge you have had the expected high level of service from administrators to warehouse operators.
  • When you bring in your goods from outside of the UK into a Customs Warehouse, this type of warehouse has been audited and approved by HMRC to ensure they comply with a set of rules and regulations, meaning you can be confident of dealing with a reputable organisation. Here at Fred Davies the security of your goods is paramount and they will be handled by very experienced and capable staff.
