A Clearing and Forwarding Agent
Actually Based in Kempton Park
Kempton Park is where South African freight happens. OR Tambo International sits inside the town's boundaries, and the industrial nodes wrapped around it — Isando, Spartan, Jet Park, Pomona, Chloorkop and Croydon — hold one of the densest concentrations of warehousing, distribution and light manufacturing anywhere in the country. If your business is here, your freight forwarder should be too.
Flexagon Freight has operated out of Kempton Park CBD since 2004. The practical difference is time. A same-day air export booked from Isando at 11am does not need a vehicle dispatched from across Gauteng — it needs a driver fifteen minutes away and a clearing agent who is already at the cargo terminal. When an airline reweighs a shipment, when a SARS query lands, when a container needs an urgent stop order lifted, being local is not a marketing line, it is the difference between the same day and the next one.
We work for importers, exporters, manufacturers and distributors across Kempton Park — from a single air waybill to a standing monthly clearing account. Call +27 73 326 0521, email [email protected], or request a quote and you will have detailed pricing back within 24 business hours.
📍 We Are Inside Kempton Park
Our office is at 2 West Street in the Kempton Park CBD — not a virtual address and not a branch of somewhere else. You can drop documents, collect release papers or sit down with the person handling your entry.

How a Kempton Park Shipment Moves With Us
Four steps from your first call to the documentation pack in your file. No call centre, no ticket queue.
01 · Tell Us What You Are Moving
Call +27 73 326 0521 or request a quote with your commodity, weight, dimensions, Incoterms and deadline. Collections from the CBD, Isando, Spartan, Jet Park, Pomona and Chloorkop are usually possible the same day the booking lands.
02 · We Plan and Price the Lane
We compare air out of OR Tambo against sea via Durban, and road against rail-linked options, then price the route that actually suits your deadline and margin. You receive an itemised quotation within 24 business hours covering freight, customs, handling, insurance and delivery — with alternatives where a different mode or routing saves money or time.
03 · Booking, Documents and Tracking
Because the cargo terminals are 7 km away, physical checks — reweighs, inspections, stop orders, SARS queries — are handled in person the same day. We prepare and lodge the customs entry, book the carrier, arrange insurance and issue you a reference you can quote at any time. Your account manager is a direct line, not a ticket queue.
04 · Delivery and Documentation Pack
Delivery into Kempton Park, anywhere in Gauteng, or onward across South Africa and Africa. You get proof of delivery, the customs release and the full document set for your records and any SARS or auditor query later.

Lanes We Run Most Often From Kempton Park
Indicative planning times for the routes Kempton Park businesses ask about most. Real timings depend on carrier schedules, customs and border conditions, and are confirmed in every quote.
| Lane from Kempton Park | Mode | Indicative transit | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kempton Park → OR Tambo cargo (air export) | Road leg + air | Same day | Collection, packing and tender to airline in one working day |
| Kempton Park → Durban Port | Road, ~570 km | 1 day | Overnight or day run for container and break-bulk |
| Kempton Park → Cape Town | Road, ~1,400 km | 2 days | Line-haul; reefer available |
| Kempton Park → Gqeberha | Road, ~1,050 km | 2 days | Automotive corridor into the Coega/Ngqura area |
| Kempton Park → Gaborone, Botswana | Road via Kopfontein | 1–2 days | SADC origin documents prepared before departure |
| Kempton Park → Maputo, Mozambique | Road via Lebombo | 1–2 days | Short haul to Maputo port and city |
| Kempton Park → Harare, Zimbabwe | Road via Beitbridge | 3–5 days | Timing driven by Beitbridge conditions |
| Kempton Park → Lusaka, Zambia | Road via Beitbridge/Chirundu | 4–6 days | Transit through Zimbabwe; bond required |
| Kempton Park → Windhoek, Namibia | Road via Nakop | 2–3 days | Also routed to Walvis Bay for onward sea |
| Kempton Park → Europe / UK | Air or sea | 1–3 days air · 25–35 days sea | Air ex OR Tambo; sea via Durban |
Transit times are planning estimates, not guarantees. Sea freight figures are port-to-port and exclude clearing at either end. Cross-border road timings assume documents are complete before the vehicle leaves — incomplete paperwork is the single biggest cause of border delay, and preparing it properly is part of what we do.
7 Costly Mistakes Kempton Park Importers & Exporters Make —
and How We Prevent Them
Most freight overspend is not the rate. It is a delay, a penalty or a charge nobody planned for.
Wrong tariff heading
An inherited or guessed HS code can mean overpaid duty on every shipment — or a SARS penalty later. We check the heading, not copy it forward.
No importer / exporter code
Cargo cannot be cleared without SARS customs registration. We walk first-time traders through it before the goods ship.
Invoice and packing list don't match
Mismatched weights, values or descriptions trigger stops and inspections. We check supplier documents before departure.
Free days missed
Containers left past the free period rack up storage, demurrage and detention. We book collection against the release.
Wrong Incoterm
EXW, FOB or DAP decides who pays for what. The wrong one quietly moves costs onto you. We advise before you order.
Undeclared dangerous goods
Batteries, chemicals, aerosols and paints need DG documentation. Undeclared DG gets rejected or fined.
Choosing the cheapest rate, not the cheapest landed cost
A low freight rate with high port, clearing or delivery charges costs more. Our quotes show the full landed cost.
