Cheapest way to ship 800lbs from USA to Trini?

[b18b_turbo]

So I'm looking for the most affordable way to ship about 800lbs to Trinidad from USA every month or so via ocean freight.

Does anyone here have any experience in this and knows what is the most economical method? The best (cheapest and reliable) ocean freight service provider?

Any help at all will be greatly appreciated as it is a matter of urgency.



Thank you

He know I on kicks, long time I haven't passed thru this board. got to shake things up a bit.

But a bit of helpful information, I've shipped commercial generators out of Miami. First thing is to get it by land / rail / truck to there. Do you have a local shipping agent / broker that can facilitate it for you?
I used a skybox for it and within a few days it was here.

you can also check a few companies that also do Brokerage and Sea Freight, usually if you take both services from them you will come out alot cheaper.

you can check.
International Shipping - shipping only
Ramps Logisitics - shipping and brokerage


Both i can tell you are the cheapest around..atleast from the Far east and South America.

but just call around and get quotes to compare.

Laparkan Reviews?

625-4775

They usually give a quote once you could provide dimensions and other bits of info and they even provide a door-to-door service where they can bring the cargo directly to your home depending on the nature of the shipment.

One time shipping with Laparkan is good, continued business with them is the worst. Poor customer service and sooner or later they will cost you uneccessary money.

if you are shipping with anyone..especially continuously..get quotations via email with a validity period for that rate..as shipping rates tend to change every 2-3 weeks due to the amount of GRI, not by the agents, but by the Vessel liek Mearsk, CMA CGM etc..

I think once you get your quotations via email they cannot overcharge you for anything...
and its important to submit your original shipping documents & invoices as early as possible to avoid any late charges.

Kinda agree. They've never had any significant cost overruns with me, but their customer service does leave a lot to be desired.

It's not really the shipping rates, it's the other small fees on the
BL (handling, unstuffing, etc).Set price one month next Month %200-%400 increase same shipment.

Has anyone ever used Carribean Shipping Agencies or Fast Freight Forwarders?

Any suggestions for a company that handles both freight and brokerage would be welcome. Trying to avoid having to deal with separate companies.

Looking to ship a 600 lb item very soon

I have heard good things about Fairway. Do they handle brokerage as well?

[Aaron 2NR]
