Only food allow in those tankes ? Or can you put old clothes or new clothes or electrodoméstics ?
One friend from NYC told me only FOOD CAN be send , then another friend told FOOD AND CLOTHES
AND THEN my aunt tells me she puts anything at longest is NOT ilegal
What is the right official answer on what can go inside or NOT inside those TANKES from those shipping companies from NYC
Ah a veteran shipper. This is great advice.Anything that’s legal. Food, clothes, shoes, candles, kitchen items (appliances, silverware, dishes, etc), sports equipment, bedding. Just be sure you tell the shipper what’s in there. Take off tags, new stuff out of boxes.
Actually, it's more like José, Raul, and Carlos in an old, beat-up truck.Ah a veteran shipper. This is great advice.
The only thing I've been saying for years is for visitors to the site "mudanza" is not this. A mudanza is Vinny, joey and Tony driving a white washed U-Haul who come and move your packed boxes from your old house to the new. It would be so much easier for newcomers and present members who don't espeaky pany to title it as simply oversees/maritime shipping or something like that. IMO!
Wouldn't shipping companies accept a video or photos of the merchandise? I'm sure shippers of heavy machinery don't send more than that for cost estimates. I assume a a not for profit you don't pay duty, correct?My non-profit has a donor who has offered to buy us a wooden swing set and slide for our playground. The wood and parts consist of 4 boxes shipped on a pallet weighting 600 pounds. The cost for the swing set is $1,300. I have gotten a quote here to have it built here and just order the slide and swings which are plastic, but the cost was more than double.
Two shippers were contacted in the US, Awilda and Camden Cargo Express. Neither could give me a cost estimate without seeing the goods.
I can pay up to $1,000 in shipping, but no more.
Is it worth the chance to just order it and send it to one of them?
That's the frustrating thing I found about Awilda Shipping. I gave them a description of the item, it's dimensions, and what it weighed. I told them I just wanted an estimate. No good. You have to ship it to them to get a quote. It's like playing the lottery.My non-profit has a donor who has offered to buy us a wooden swing set and slide for our playground.

That's because in most cases the "before" and the "after" are two completely different animals.That's the frustrating thing I found about Awilda Shipping.

I don't follow - before and after what?That's because in most cases the "before" and the "after" are two completely different animals.
For example, the gym set Lindsey wants is probably very small in its unassembled state, and much larger when it's assembled.I don't follow - before and after what?
Ok. I don't see what that has to do with the shipper though(?). It's still in the box when they get it and they don't put it together and deliver it to you assembled.For example, the gym set Lindsey wants is probably very small in its unassembled state, and much larger when it's assembled.
Another example would be IKEA products. Many times there is a big difference in size between the box they give you and the completed item.
