Container Drayage for Personal Effects and Household Goods in Miami

Drayage for Personal Effects and Household Goods

Thousands of people relocate to South Florida annually, many shipping their personal effects and household goods in containers through PortMiami. The drayage process for personal effects differs from commercial imports in several important ways.

Customs Clearance for Personal Effects

Personal effects enter under a different customs classification than commercial goods. You’ll need a detailed packing list, proof of residency or relocation, and may qualify for duty-free entry. Customs processing can take 3-5 business days, during which your container sits at the terminal.

Residential Delivery Challenges

Unlike commercial drayage to warehouses with loading docks, residential deliveries face tight streets, no dock access, HOA restrictions, and time-of-day limitations. Go Freight coordinates residential container delivery with consideration for these constraints.
