Is there a place preferably in Santo Domingo where you can put your furniture in storage for maybe a year or so? I thought I remember reading there was one on the north coast but is there one in SD or even Santiago?
Mudom, Mudanzas Dominicanas, they will pack your furniture at the lowest price and store it. I used them to pack and store the furniture from 3br apartment for a year and then to deliver it to my new apartment.
