End Result:
Importing various types of furniture and accessories from the U.S., Ron has found our services to be of great value. Ron at Urban Manor was paying roughly $75.00 for a shipment of accessories valued at $ 600.00. Paying that much for customs brokerage fees on such a small shipment made Ron search for a better option. Through a reference Ron came across our customs brokerage services and is now paying a third of what he used to pay in customs brokerage fees. Ron is no longer reluctant to order furniture and accessories from his various U.S. suppliers and is happily saving roughly $ 400 a month off clearance fees.
