Everything you need to know about working with Leox Logistics — from requesting a quote to customs clearance.

How do I request a freight quotation?
Complete our online Get a Quote form with your origin, destination and cargo details. You can also call us on +973 1717 1507, message us on WhatsApp on +973 3694 1166, or email lv@leoxlog.com. Our team will review your request and come back to you with a tailored proposal.
What information do you need to prepare an accurate quote?
The most helpful details are: origin and destination (including whether you need door-to-door service), a description of the cargo, approximate weight and dimensions or volume, the number of packages, your preferred mode of transport, the Incoterms of your purchase or sale, and when the cargo will be ready. If you are unsure about any of these, just tell us what you know and we will guide you.
Do you handle customs clearance in Bahrain?
Yes. We arrange customs clearance at all Bahrain ports — by air, sea and road — for both imports and exports. Our team gathers and reviews the paperwork, resolves missing information with the shipper or importer, and can help you understand tariff codes and duty structures.
Can you transport cargo by road to Saudi Arabia and other GCC countries?
Yes. Bahrain is an ideal gateway to the region, and we move loose freight, part loads (LTL) and full truck loads (FTL) to the main economic centres of the Middle East using flatbed, low-bed, fence, containerised and reefer trailers.
What is the difference between FCL and LCL sea freight?
FCL (Full Container Load) means your cargo has a container to itself — usually the most economical option for larger volumes and the most secure. LCL (Less than Container Load) consolidates your cargo with other shippers’ goods in a shared container, so you only pay for the space you use. We can advise on the best choice for your volume and timeline.
Which air freight service should I choose?
Leox Express is for time-critical cargo on the next direct flight or fastest connection. Leox Priority balances cost and speed with average transit times of 3–6 days. Leox Standard is our most economical option when transit time is less critical.
Do you offer a free survey for household moves?
Yes. We offer a free survey for export cargo anywhere in Bahrain. For personal effects, a dedicated team assesses the manpower and packing materials required and handles packing, furniture dismantling, household goods and sports equipment.
Can you ship my car overseas?
Yes. We handle personal cars, six-wheelers in containers and brand-new premium vehicles, shipped in containers or by RoRo (roll-on/roll-off) to destinations worldwide, including the export documentation and customs formalities.
How will I be kept updated on my shipment?
We update the booking party on shipment status twice a week with a status report, and our sales and customer service team is available around the clock by phone, WhatsApp and email.
Can you arrange cargo insurance?
Yes. Transport insurance can be arranged as part of our freight services. Let us know when requesting a quote and we will include it.
Can you store my goods in Bahrain before delivery?
Yes. Our secure private warehouse is suited to dry cargo. We can receive consignments on your behalf, manage inventory, pack, label and shrink-wrap, then deliver to your facility or reship as directed.
