Important Update:
New Pricing Effective July 1, 2025
At Caribbean Cargo DC, we are committed to delivering exceptional service with transparency and care. As part of our routine business review, we’ve updated our pricing for select boxes and crates, which will take effect beginning July 1, 2025.
We want our customers to know that this decision was not made lightly. Our team remains focused on ensuring every shipment receives the highest standard of care—from the moment it’s picked up to the time it reaches its final destination. Here’s what influenced the adjustments:
📦 Why Have Some Box & Crate Prices Increased?
- Global Material Costs: The price of cardboard, plastic, and wood used to construct our containers has risen significantly due to sustained inflation and shipping supply chain challenges.
- Port & Labor Costs: Increased handling fees at U.S. and Caribbean ports, along with higher labor rates, have added to overall shipping and storage costs.
- Quality & Compliance Enhancements: To improve durability and meet stricter shipping regulations, we’ve upgraded many of our boxes and crates—especially for large-format and international exports.
- Sustainability Goals: We’ve invested in more eco-friendly packing materials and processes as part of our long-term environmental responsibility commitments.
We are proud to still offer one of the most competitive rates in the Mid-Atlantic region, with Promo Boxes starting at just $50 when paired with a larger shipment.
