Thank you for all the details.
I am purchasing a full container arriving at Port of Miami from china. Im being told I only have to pay customs fees, is that correct? If not, how would I be able to calculate total fees?

I have never done this before and I read your article. I looked into freight forwarding /broker to my address in San Angelo Texas and it was not feasible. It was going to cost upwards of $5000+ to go from port to home. I know that there is a lot of paperwork involved for clearance etc. I want to go and get my own items and load them in a moving truck to save on costs. Where does the sea container go after arriving at port? Does it go directly to a warehouse as I was reading even for an FCL and how do we know which one?

I have a forwarder than can usually pick up a shipment from the port and get it to its final location by road. However, I was told that the equipment that they use to get the containers from the port is all tied up due to the back up in the supply chain. So my best option would be to get the shipment from the port to a warehouse. How do I facilitate that process and who to I contact for information on doing this? The article above states that a LCL will usually be sent to a warehouse, however I know that my shipment will be a full container.

No, you won’t be picking up from the port. Assuming this is “LCL” (less than a container) your goods will go to a local warehouse operated by a freight forwarder. Normally they’ll have forklifts available and will probably charge you a nominal fee for it.

Does port provide forklift if the crate is too heavy to load onto your truck by your self?
