Tropical Shipping Establishes General Rate Increase for Shipments from the Continental U.S. or Canada Destined to St. Maarten

As part of our commitment to the customers and the communities we serve, Tropical Shipping strives to deliver the best competitive transportation value. Due to the increasing cost of non-fuel related operational expenses, our ability to sustain and invest in the service you have come to expect has been impacted.

In order to continue to provide the highest quality, on-time shipping services, effective April 7, 2024, Tropical Shipping will establish a General Rate Increase (GRI) for shipments from the Continental U.S. or Canada to St. Maarten.
