Los Angeles Customs Broker is a licensed customs brokerage and freight forwarder built around the busiest trade gateway in the country. We clear import and export cargo through the Port of Los Angeles, the Port of Long Beach, and LAX, and we do it with the responsiveness that national brokerages cannot match.
Who We Are
We are a port-native brokerage. That means we work the LA and Long Beach terminals and the LAX cargo facilities every day, we know the drayage market and the warehouse corridors, and we understand the local CBP process firsthand. When your cargo is on the line, that knowledge is the difference between a quick release and a week of demurrage.
What We Believe
The industry treats customs brokerage as commodity paperwork where the lowest filing fee wins. We think that is exactly backwards. One misclassification or a missed ISF costs far more in penalties and demurrage than years of filing fees. Classification expertise and responsiveness are the product. The paperwork is just the receipt.
How We Work
- Port-native expertise. Specialists in the LA and Long Beach ports and LAX, not a national call center guessing at your terminal.
- Responsive when it counts. A real broker answers the phone, and we respond to every shipment within one business day.
- Compliance that protects you. Correct classification, on-time ISF, and the right bond mean no surprise penalties and no avoidable holds.
What We Do
From customs clearance and freight forwarding to drayage and distribution, we handle your cargo end to end, so your import or export moves as one continuous job instead of a chain of vendors pointing fingers.
