From China to Suriname, by the cubic meter.
Buy straight from factories on 1688, Taobao or Alibaba. Your supplier delivers to our warehouse in Yiwu, we consolidate everything into one container and sail it to Paramaribo. Flat $450 per m³ — the price for bulk that air freight can't touch.

- Best for furniture, machines, inventory, renovation goods — anything big
- Minimum 0.2 m³ per shipment ($90)
Rates are temporarily elevated by the Red Sea disruption — sea freight normally runs about $60/m³ cheaper. Our price drops the moment the lane normalizes.
How it works
1688, Taobao, Alibaba or any Chinese factory. You buy on your own account — we handle the freight.
Message us and we send you the Yiwu warehouse address plus your personal shipping mark (in Chinese, ready to paste to your supplier). Boxes without the mark are refused at the warehouse.
The warehouse hands over a pink intake receipt. Ask your supplier to photograph it and send it to you — that photo is your proof of delivery. A tracking number alone is not enough.
We consolidate, load the container and handle the crossing to Paramaribo. Typical door-to-port time is 60–90 days. Pickup at our location, or door delivery on request.
What it costs
| Volume | Fits roughly | Sea freight |
|---|---|---|
| 0.2 m³ (minimum) | 4–6 moving boxes | $90 |
| 0.5 m³ | a washing machine + boxes | $225 |
| 1 m³ | a three-seat sofa | $450 |
| 2 m³ | small shop inventory | $900 |
Volume is measured at the warehouse (length × width × height of your packed cargo). Price covers Yiwu intake, consolidation and the sea crossing to Paramaribo. Local customs clearance and any import duties are billed at cost.
The rules that keep it cheap
- Shipping mark on every box. The warehouse refuses unmarked deliveries — make sure your supplier prints or writes it on each carton.
- Keep the pink receipt photo. It's the only accepted proof your goods reached the warehouse. No receipt photo, no claim.
- Fragile goods go on pallets. Damage to loose-packed fragile cargo isn't covered. We can ask the warehouse to palletize for a small fee.
- Small shipments ride at your own risk. Below 0.5 m³ there is no loss cover from the carrier. Shipping several small orders? Have your suppliers deliver to one agent first, or time them together, and we'll consolidate.
