sorry about the typo's...shipping

Billy Valdes or Melin Gomez in Belize City are both very good.

We use Speed Cargo out of Miami and Billy Valdez. Both have been very reliable.

Just used Hyde shipping last month. Everything was perfect, only ONE champagne glass got broken, out of 85 boxes!!!!
The broker we used was however, dreadful!!!!!! I won't put his name, but will say that we have used Billy Valdez in the past, and WILL go back to him in the future.
Good luck in your move. Corozol is a beautiful little town and I love visiting there. The day trips over to Chetumal are great too.
Cheerz!

"good luck" wishes...maybe when i get settled, we can get together on one of your visits....take care...kerry

contact info.

Does anyone have his email address or website?

Same story with Melin Gomez.

Anyone know how to contact them?
