Hello!

We just bought a house here in Aruba and we are looking to furnish it. I came to the island and found very little for very much..so the conclusion is to ship a container with furniture from the USA or Europe. Is there another family interested in shipping furniture to AUA and sharing the cost of container and duties. IF you are interested let me know...Kind regards to all...

If you're not successful finding someone to share a container, the shipping company may be able to help you. We shipped our furniture to Aruba in Jan 2010 out of NYC. The shipper told us if we didn't fill the container, they may be able to find someone with a partial shipment to complete our container. No worries, though - we completely filled the container ourselves!!! Good luck! Hope it all works out for you!
