What mode of transportation is best for shipping household goods to Costa Rica?

To perform long distance moving at affordable rates to Costa Rica, FCL ocean shipping is the best option.

Full Container Load, or FCL, is a method of intermodal or oceanic transportation that gives you exclusive access and control over your own shipping container.
Because you are not sharing the space, you are fully in charge when it comes to the safety and the security of your personal belongings.
Also, shipping your household goods and furniture to Costa Rica by ocean container will allow you to save a considerable amount of money, compared to other shipping methods such as air freight.

What shipping documents will you need to move to Costa Rica from the US or Canada?

When shipping your household goods and furniture to Costa Rica, you will need to be ready to supply documents with a list of all items being shipped. To avoid any delay or issues, make sure all the information that will be declared on your Bill of Lading is correct. This includes:

● Your full name and other personal information
● Every detail regarding the personal belongings you are shipping with us
● The origin and destination ports
● Your complete and accurate address at origin and destination.
