Frequently Asked Questions
What types of airfreight shipments does Larkin Express handle?
We handle both air imports and air exports for domestic and international shipments. Our dedicated airfreight team manages everything from recovery at the airline or cargo handler all the way through final delivery to the receiver.
What makes your airfreight service different from a standard freight carrier?
Our Airfreight Division is a team dedicated exclusively to airfreight. We don't mix air cargo with general LTL shipments. Every load gets a dedicated truck, ensuring your time-sensitive freight receives the full attention and capacity it requires.
How quickly can you have a truck on-site after I request a quote?
At all major airports and cities where we operate, we have a truck on-site within the hour of your quote request.
What airport hubs do you service?
We provide national coverage and operate daily at 16 major U.S. hubs: LAX, SFO, SLC, DFW, IAH, DEN, ORD, DTW, BOS, JFK, EWR, IAD, CLT, ATL, MCO, and MIA.
Are you available outside of normal business hours?
Yes. We provide 24/7 coverage, 365 days a year.
How do you ensure my cargo is loaded correctly and nothing is left behind?
For every import shipment, we photograph all loaded cargo before leaving the shipper and verify piece counts against the BOL. This confirms accuracy upfront and prevents cargo from being overlooked and entering storage.
How do you handle TSA compliance for air exports?
We use Veroot to verify TSA compliance on all export shipments. We also maintain driver Change 10 authority certificates, TWIC cards, and STA numbers securely on file for any audits.
Will I receive tracking and delivery confirmation?
Yes. Every shipment includes digital tracking from pickup to delivery, and a Proof of Delivery (POD) is provided before the driver leaves the receiver.
How quickly will I receive an invoice after my shipment delivers?
Invoices are issued within 24 hours of load delivery.
