The transit time from port to port usually varies between 2-4 weeks depending on the origin, destination and service. Generally, a shorter transit time will result in higher freight costs.

We do not offer packing, loading or unloading services. Our drivers will position the empty container at the requested address (as long as it is accessible) and it would be the responsibility of the owner of the goods to load the container. That is why we would recommend that you hire a professional packing company in your region, to assist you with the packing for your items and loading inside the container.

Loading and unloading the container yourself would be the most cost-effective operation. Nevertheless, we could arrange for loading and unloading if needed.

The free time allowed to load the container is tipically between 1-2 hours. There is a $100 USD fee for every extra hour after the free time period. If you would require 24-48 hours to load the container, we can offer a drop-load service which would double the pick up cost. Similarly, the same concepts would apply when delivering the cargo at destination.

Yes, we can ship your personal vehicle to Nicaragua either by RORO service or inside of the ocean container. Keep in mind, before having your vehicle shipped internationally you may want to verify with a customs broker overseas that your vehicle can be imported into Nicaragua.

Yes, we offer an additional insurance policy for international shipping. Considering the fact that some companies offer a liability limit as low as $500 for an entire container, we highly recommend to insure your cargo even-though you may have packed your cargo securely. Insurance prices will depend on the value of the goods and shipping costs.

Unfortunately, we do not offer customs clearance services at destination for personal shipments. Our recommendation would be to contact your local consulate and ask for a list of reputable customs brokers to help you with the clearance of your goods.
