The following information are the rates for Transportation of Shipping Container Homes in Costa Rica:
The location of our suppliers and the delivery location will affect the price of the shipping container.
Our company has received many requests for international quotes.
We are very excited to begin exporting shipping container homes all over the word.
In the beginning we will only ship our newest product, the 20ft studio apartment.
We learned that we could ship to the USA for under $2500.
We are currently exploring a way to create the service door to door. Naturally the shipping container home will need to clear customs, pay it’s import tax and then be loaded upon a flatbed truck. This process is very new to us. So far we have only re-modified shipping containers into homes for clients in Costa Rica.
The idea of exporting around the world is very exciting. We are learning that the shipping containers, once they have been modified, must meet the standards of being seaworthy. This is a very important factor because the shipping containers will naturally be stacked upon each other, so any units with structural damage will be a concern. When we take off a sidewall of the container home, the unit becomes unseaworthy. So naturally we re-support the cut out with 2x2 steel beams, that we weld into the structure. This is still considered an alteration and the container home must pass seaworthy inspectors.
As of this date the client will be responsible for claiming the unit and clearing it through your countries customs.
Also paying any fees, import taxes and any other local charges, i.e. storage fees,etc
The client will need to arrange the transportation and installation of the shipping container homes to your property.
My suggestion is to contact a custom agent to help with the process, it is actually quite easy and fast. Plus we can help as well. There is nothing inside the containers, i.e. materials,goods,etc. So there should not be any large fees applied to the home.
With all of that information in your hands you should be able to make a decision on the overall value of importing one of our products verses buying and or locally making one.
