Liz, every Company´s ship goes to Puerto Cortes 2 or 3 times a week, is a very bussy port, you can do the clearence in Puerto Cortes or the last destination of the goods, and I recomend you to do it at the last destination, you better be there though the custom agent can take care of the whole job, The cheapest way would be to take the goods from lets say Ok to the nearest port which could be Houston, Gulfport, Miami or NY. Have you contacted Seabord Marine or Crowley Caribbean in the USA,? they should give you a complete quote and time of departure as well as arrival. Make a phone call to this two companies, they have english speaking guys there at the office too. regards
Liz escribió: Cesar, I am VERY interested in being able to ship from Houston to Roatan as I know many other people coming from the Middle of the US are! I looked at the websites, in Spanish, and did a altavistabablefish translation on them but we all would like more information! How frequently does a ship come to Puerto Cortes? Who to contact in the states to arrange delivery of household goods and vehicles? If one is bringing household goods and vehicle does it clear customs in Puerto Cortes, not Roatan? and does one has to be there when that happens?
I know that shipping from Puerto Cortes to Roatan can be by either Island Shipping or Puerto Cortes Gilbralter boats do these companies arrange that if one does the redestination?
Of course the big question is cost? Does one save by not having to say take all the stuff to be shipped to Miami from, Lets say Nebraska? - 3-4 days travel time, costs in getting stuff to Miami - vs savings in time to get to Houston, where there are direct flights to Roatan also....
Personally am VERY interested in hearing more details. Liz
