Cargo
Hello everyone. I'm planning to ship a shipment of equipment from the US to a Caribbean island. I'm considering shipping to one of the smaller countries in the region. I'd like to hear from those with experience: what difficulties arose during the process, especially with FCL/LCL sea freight, and considering local customs procedures. Any advice on choosing a route, carrier, and delivery time to avoid surprises?

I lived in Roseau for a couple of months, helping friends relocate their businesses, and then realized how important it is to figure out shipping to islands like Dominica in advance. Many people think it's like standard international shipping, but there are a ton of details—from weather conditions to temporary storage facilities. After a long search, I came across this website https://ram-shipping.com/destinations/dominica/ , which explains everything step by step, and it was a real lifesaver. Without it, we would have wasted weeks on approvals and paying for unnecessary services.
