As an essential service provider, Caribbean Cargo DC (CCDC) understands all too well the challenges our customers are still facing as we continue to weather the effects of this pandemic. To that end, we are waiving the Peak Season Surcharge for 2020 for all shipments to the Caribbean. The 5% (five percent) peak season surcharge will NOT be applied to shipments during this year’s holiday season.
While our 2020 Shipping Schedule has already been developed, CCDC reminds customers to expect delays relating to cargo release at destination ports. We ask all customers to plan accordingly and ship early for the upcoming holiday season.
The prolonged effects of the current COVID-19 pandemic may cause delays of 1 to 2 weeks as it relates to the release of shipments due to port restrictions, appointments now being required to collect cargo and other logistical challenges.
As we expect delays in cargo delivery, CCDC continues to provide the shipping services and on-time delivery that we have been known to provide. We put the safety of our customers and staff above all else and hope that each of you remain safe as we weather this pandemic.
For questions about this update, please write to us or call our office during regular business hours at 301.887.1070.
Thank you for trusting Caribbean Cargo DC with your shipping needs!
