Why Ship from New Jersey & Florida to Poti, Georgia?
Strategic Departure Points
Our New Jersey and Florida facilities offer distinct advantages for shipping to Georgia:
-
New Jersey: Ideal for East Coast exporters, with direct Atlantic routes to Poti (35–45 days transit).
-
Florida: Closer proximity to Georgia, reducing transit times and fuel costs.
Both locations provide:
-
Weekly consolidated container departures
-
30 days of free storage before loading
-
Nationwide vehicle pickup to our secure facilities
Cost Efficiency
Shipping from these ports cuts expenses significantly compared to West Coast routes. For example:
| Route | Cost per Vehicle | Transit Time |
|---|---|---|
| Florida to Poti | $1,100–$1,800 | 35–45 days |
| New Jersey to Poti | $1,250–$2,000 | 40–50 days |
How Consolidated Containers Save You 50%
Our weekly container consolidation service from NJ and FL allows multiple importers to share space, dramatically lowering costs:
-
Shared 40ft containers: Split costs with 2–4 vehicles per box.
-
Guaranteed departures: No last-minute delays.
