What is an NVOCC?
A Non-Vessel Operating Common Carrier. We book space on ocean carriers and issue our own bill of lading, so you deal with us instead of the shipping line.
What's the difference between LCL and FCL?
LCL (less than container load) shares a container with other cargo, so you pay for the space you use. FCL (full container load) is a whole container booked for your shipment.
Do you ship outside the Caribbean?
Yes. Bestway holds a worldwide tariff and ships from any US port to destinations around the world. Ask us for a rate.
Can you pick up my cargo?
Yes. Midway's own trucks cover the NY/NJ metro, and we can arrange pickup anywhere in the US.
