I had a few questions for anyone that has shipped a vehicle from the states to STT, any help is appreciated. I searched around but could not locate answers.

I have heard that tropical is a pretty reliable company, is that your experience?

What is the approximate time for delivery from miami, fl to STT?

Also, is it allowable to pack personal items in the vehicle to be shipped?

Lastly, any idea on aproxi,ate cost to ship an older 4 door jeep?

TIA

Tropical is a reliable carrier and one of our main shipping lines - Crowley being the other main shipper - No personal items at all - both not allowed and not safe from pilferage - 7-14 days depending on when the ship you are loading onto is scheduled to leave - they will tell you that departure date - about $1200 plus Vi road tax,excise tax and registration.

Tropical Shipping will not insure your shipment. Car or otherwise. Go to page 3 and read the Tropical shipping post.
