Thirteen countries.
One dock in Miami.
Every lane on this page starts at the same 50,000 sq ft bonded facility in Medley and ends at a consignee in Latin America. Pick your destination below. Where we have published the full lane guide, it covers transit times, ports, sailing frequency and the paperwork customs will actually ask you for.

Do not see your destination? These are the lanes we run most often, not a limit. We move cargo across Latin America and the Caribbean — call and ask.
What we publish for each lane.
A lane guide is not a brochure. It is the information you would otherwise have to phone three forwarders to assemble — written down, for one specific route.
Sailing frequency and the day it departs. Transit time port to port. Air frequency where we fly the lane. Booking and receiving cutoffs.
Which port we sail from and which port it lands at. Which airport it flies into. Inland cities we deliver to at destination.
The documents that lane’s customs authority actually asks for, including origin certification where a trade agreement applies.
What typically moves on the lane, what needs crating or ISPM 15 treatment, and what we cannot carry.
The Miami to Honduras guide is the worked example — weekly ocean sailings to Puerto Cortés, direct flights to San Pedro Sula and Tegucigalpa, and the CAFTA-DR paperwork spelled out. Every lane we publish follows that shape.
What we need to quote any lane.
You do not need a published guide to get a price. Send these seven things and a rate comes back within four business hours — on any lane on the board, and most that are not.
If the shipment is going by ocean, tell us whether you want it consolidated with other cargo (LCL) or in a container of your own (FCL). If it is urgent, air freight out of MIA is usually the answer. If you are not sure which is cheaper for your volume, ask — that calculation is part of the job.

- Destination city and country
- Piece count, dimensions and total weight
- Whether the cargo is palletized, crated or loose
- Commodity, and its value for insurance

Why every one of these lanes starts in Miami.
Miami is where north–south trade consolidates. Cargo from across the United States converges here because the ocean carriers and the airlines that serve Latin America converge here, and because a shipment that would not fill a container on its own can be consolidated with others going the same way.
That consolidation happens on our floor. We run a C-TPAT certified bonded container freight station in Medley with 18 dock doors, so freight can be received, deconsolidated and reloaded under bond, and customs clearance is filed in the same building rather than handed to a third party.
Cross-docking in Miami — 18 doors, palletized freight off in under an hour.
Warehousing and storage — when cargo needs to wait for the sailing.
Container equipment guide — what fits in a 20ft, 40ft or flat rack.
Sailing schedules — current departures from Miami and Port Everglades.
Shipping from Miami to Latin America.
My country does not have a published guide yet. Can you still ship it?
Yes. Every lane on the board runs today. The guides are being written one at a time because each one takes real research — sailing days, transit times, port pairs, the documents that country’s customs actually asks for. A missing guide means we have not finished writing, not that we do not sail there. Call and we will quote it.
Do you ship to countries that are not on this list?
Often, yes. The board shows the lanes we run most frequently out of Miami. We forward across Latin America and the Caribbean, so if your destination is not listed it is worth asking rather than assuming.
Should I ship ocean or air?
Ocean is cheaper per kilo and slower; air is faster and priced on weight or volume, whichever is greater. The crossover depends on how much you are moving and how soon it has to land. For a small, urgent, high-value shipment air usually wins even on cost, once you account for the money tied up in transit. Tell us the weight, dimensions and deadline and we will tell you which one is actually cheaper for your shipment.
What is LCL, and when does it beat a full container?
LCL means less than container load — your cargo shares a container with other shippers going to the same destination. It beats FCL whenever you do not have enough volume to justify paying for a whole box. Once you are filling roughly half a 20ft container or more, a full container usually works out cheaper per unit and moves faster because it does not wait for consolidation.
Can you collect from outside Florida?
Yes. Cargo arrives at our Miami facility from across the United States. We run our own trucks for pickup and delivery throughout South Florida, and arrange linehaul from further afield. See trucking and ground transportation.
Do you handle customs at both ends?
We file U.S. export clearance in-house. At destination we work with agents on each lane who handle the import entry, so you are not left finding a broker in a country you do not operate in. What each lane’s customs authority requires is set out in that lane’s guide.
How long does a quote take?
Four business hours, Monday to Friday, when you send the seven details listed above. Incomplete information is the usual reason a quote takes longer — particularly missing dimensions, since ocean and air are both priced on volume as well as weight.
Do you move dangerous goods on these lanes?
Yes, with the classification and paperwork handled properly before the cargo reaches the dock. See dangerous goods consulting. Tell us at booking rather than on arrival — a misdeclared shipment stops the whole consolidation.
Tell us where it is going.
Any country on the board, and most that are not. Send the details and a rate comes back the same working day.
