Shipping county tractor?

[dextadriver]

I am looking at buying a county tractor in Tennessee and shipping it to uk
I would like to know what paperwork is needed to do this
Thanks

I suggest you locate and have a conversation with an importer firm in the UK. OR, if you live in the U.S.A., an export firm here.

I agree with Ray.
Get a broker involved.
He will know all the ins and outs of the paperwork involved and should be able to guide you or have access to a shipping container to transport it in.
He will also know what port and ship to use.

Thanks for replies
I have contacted 2 shipping brokers and it’s just not worth the hassle involved so I am leaving it
I might start looking here in the hills of mid wales you just never know what could turn up somewhere
Thanks again

I know these were made across the pond and you would like to get this one back home, but I have worked on a couple of them and they are a 100% pain in the rear here in the USA. We cannot find any parts at all for the front axles or the 4wd drivetrain. I have had a WRAG self -propelled post driver at my shop for 9 months. It also came from across the pond. Same story. No parts available.

How old is post driver?
What parts do you want?

It is a 2006 model. The drive shaft from the engine to the hydraulic pumps was all worn out. WRAG has been bought out by another company. I have been in contact with them numerous times and they finally told me that they could not help me. I have finally been able to find some of the parts from other sources and actually make the others in my machine shop. We have just about got it back together.

I am glad you got it sorted

Some of the major brand of tractors build them in the UK as well as other nations. You know they will meet emissions stadards there.
