Does Nagua have a FedEx office.... or UPS..... or DHL?

Their websites didn't help me much.... FedEx doesn't show the Sosua office, let alone Nagua

Is Tuesday really 1/2 price day - as posted earlier ?

There is a CPS office in Nagua who ships docs etc out of the country using FedEx or DHL - Costs a sml fortune but it goes out.

Fedex/Caribe Express was a waste of time.....

Went back to CPS y'day and sent it DHL.

CPS is an agent... a 3rd party... so they charge.
The DHL bill to Canada was $66.... CPS added their fee....final charge was $84

Sent
CPS sends it Caribe Tours to Sto Dom.... then it moves on
You get a DHL tracking slip, etc.... I saw it go into the DHL envelope...... All very legit.

The fellow there speaks good English if you need it

Thank you CG for the info

Delivery by Monday....

Not great ( no fault of CPS).... but it'll get there

I assumed DHL was equivilent to FedX and would a been quicker than that, apparently not.. Unfortunately there really are 0 quick options for getting things outta here other than hand carrying it yourself or via a friend carrying it..

There are different levels of service available for DHL, UPS, and FEDEX.

If you need something delivered next day, it will cost a lot more than what WW paid.

I caution against using DHL..... I have been having trouble.

1/ delivery was scheduled for 1 week after my drop off.... too long
2/ it was held up at Cdn border for extra payment of $32CAD.... extra tariffs , I was told
very hard to get thru to DHL and pay that..... shipment pushed back while processing

Should be delivered this week

CPS did their part..... DHL seems to be the weak link
