Carex Shipping: When Hiring International Shipper, Seek Licensed and Bonded Company
Las Vegas, Nevada (PRWEB) November 30, 2009 -- For those needing international shipping services (http://www.carexshipping.com), Carex International Shipping Company recommends always hiring a company that has been licensed and bonded by the Federal Maritime Commission (FMC). Taking this step will help consumers avoid fraud. Carex International Shipping Company is licensed and bonded, and has been providing their services for over a decade.
“Many consumers are apprehensive about hiring a company they haven’t seen, and trusting them to ship their items overseas,” explains Mike Sekirin, of Carex Shipping (carexshipping.com (http://www.carexshipping.com)). “It’s understandable. This is why it is imperative that you go with a company that has been licensed and bonded.”
Under federal law, specifically the Shipping Act of 1984, all ocean transportation intermediaries must be licensed and bonded through the FMC. According to FMC, this helps protect the consumer; if there is a dispute that cannot be resolved, they will be able to submit a claim against the shipping company’s bond. Those who hire companies that are not licensed and bonded do not have this protection or recovery possibility.
Carex Shipping provides international transportation for a variety of large items, including motorcycles, passenger vehicles, pick-up trucks, boats, jet skis, machinery, personal home goods, and more. In addition, any vehicle that fits into the ocean container is allowed, making it a popular option for those making purchases from online auction sites.
To help make shipping rates more affordable, the company offers a “shared container” option, which allows customers to share the cost of a container, paying only for the space they use within the container.
Carex Shipping ships from all major ports: Los Angeles, Savannah, New York, Baltimore, Jacksonville, Miami, Norfolk and Houston. Their world-wide destination ports can be found in Italy, Australia, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. They also assist customers with handling all documentation, vehicle registration and customs clearances, as well as helping customers once the item has reached its destination.
“If you need an international shipping company, do not entrust your stuff to just anyone,” adds Sekirin. “We have earned the trust of our customers over the past decade, and we take such issues seriously.”
