Shipping to La Altagracia and export from La Altagracia, Dominican Republic

Where we serve in La Altagracia

The provincial capital is Higüey, home to the Basílica de Nuestra Señora de la Altagracia, a major pilgrimage site. On the coast, the Punta Cana and Bávaro corridor stretches through Cap Cana, Uvero Alto, Macao, Juanillo and Cabeza de Toro, and further south lie Bayahíbe, Dominicus and the fishing towns near the Parque Nacional del Este. We deliver to hotel service entrances, warehouses, construction sites, homes and shops along that whole stretch.

Ports and airports for La Altagracia

Air cargo has its own gateway: Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ) sits inside the province and is one of the busiest in the Caribbean. For ocean freight there is no major container terminal in the province, so full containers normally come in through La Romana or Caucedo and are trucked east along the coastal highways. We choose the port based on the carrier, the cargo and the next sailing, and we confirm it at booking.

The local economy and what moves through La Altagracia

Hospitality is the engine: all-inclusive resorts, golf, marinas, restaurants, spas, event companies and the construction and real-estate projects that keep adding capacity. Behind them sit laundries, kitchens, maintenance shops, food and beverage distributors and furniture or fixtures suppliers. Higüey and the inland areas add commerce, services and some cattle and agriculture.

Importing to La Altagracia from anywhere in the world

Hotels and contractors import furniture, fixtures, kitchen and laundry equipment, linens, tiles, lighting, pool and gardening supplies, restaurant stock and spare parts, either as full containers or consolidated with other cargo. Families and residents receive barrels, boxes, household moves and vehicles. We coordinate customs clearance and plan delivery windows that suit receiving docks and construction schedules.

Exporting from La Altagracia to the world

Export volume is smaller than imports here, but it is real: artisan goods, art, furniture, personal effects of people relocating abroad, return shipments of equipment and samples from local producers. We arrange pickup in the province, book the leg from La Romana, Caucedo or PUJ, and prepare the commercial invoice, packing list and export declaration.

Pickup and delivery across La Altagracia

La Altagracia covers both a pilgrimage city and one of the busiest tourist corridors in the Caribbean, and the two have different rhythms. Hotels and resorts in Punta Cana and Bávaro often set receiving windows and gate procedures, and traffic on the main roads rises in high season. We coordinate the appointment with the receiving department and plan the truck to arrive within the window.

Getting your La Altagracia shipment ready

Hotels and suppliers should send the packing list with weights and dimensions and tell us who receives and unloads. Villa and condo owners should give us the community's access rules and the name of the person on site.
