Cargo

Hello everyone. I'm planning to ship cargo from the US to the Caribbean. Could you please tell me what are the typical challenges when arranging sea freight there? Has anyone had experience with consolidated containers or transporting equipment to the port and then on to the destination?

I understand what you're saying. When I was trying to organize sea shipping of equipment to the Caribbean, the situation with the archipelago turned out to be quite unusual: the terminal port is small, the frequency of ships is limited, and transhipment from transit often leads to delays. You need to be prepared for the container to simply "wait" for a nearby transhipment port. After carefully analyzing the routes and choosing a carrier, a friend recommended https://ram-shipping.com/destinations/saint-kitts-and-nevis/ , which explains everything step by step: ports, deadlines, consolidated shipments, and documentation. This gave me an understanding of whether it's worth playing with LCL/consolidated or going straight to FCL, and how to organize delivery from port to final destination without surprises.
