For those NON-RESIDENTS: Has anyone taken the route of buying all-NEW household furniture in the US, inserting it in a container and having the container shipped to the DR?

If so, what were the costs involved?
Duties/tariffs? (what % of the purchase price, etc)
Paperwork involved?
Shipping time?
Shipping expense from port to your final destination/logistics involved?
Any container companies you would recommend based on your experience?

Thanks!
