Why sea freight
Built for the loads air can't carry.
Pay by volume, not weight. Three principles drive every sea freight shipment we move.
- 01
Pay by volume, not weight
Sea freight charges by cubic feet, so a heavy 200 lb appliance costs the same to ship as a light 50 lb one. Predictable pricing on anything you can pack.
- 02
Built for big and bulky
Barrels, furniture, appliances, bulk orders — if it fits in a barrel or container, we'll ship it. No item too large, no shipment too dense.
- 03
End-to-end handling
Ocean freight, customs clearance, and branch pickup all rolled into one transparent rate. You ship to Miami; we handle the rest.

Before you ship.
A few things that'll help you pack right, estimate accurately, and avoid surprises at customs.
Open the full calculatorShipping vs Assembled Dimensions
Many merchants list assembled dimensions (the size when built), not the shipping/box dimensions. Always ask for the boxed dimensions or measure the actual carton before estimating your cubic feet.
How to Calculate Cubic Feet
Measure Length × Width × Height in inches, then divide by 1,728. For centimetres, divide by 28,317.
Use our calculatorEstimated Transit Time
Sea freight typically takes 2–4 weeks from our Miami warehouse to your branch in Jamaica — longer than air freight, but significantly cheaper for large items.
Customs Duties & Taxes
All goods entering Jamaica are subject to customs clearance. Duties and taxes are the customer's responsibility and vary by item type and value. Our rates do not include customs charges.
Prohibited Items
Flammable liquids, explosives, perishable foods, and other restricted goods cannot be shipped. Check the full list before packing.
View prohibited itemsPacking for Sea Freight
Sea shipments spend longer in transit. Use sturdy boxes, wrap fragile items well, avoid loose packing, and seal barrels tightly with no gaps.
