I received an e-mail today confirming that my shipped stuff arrived in the US a week ago and has now cleared customs. It was supposed to land at Chicago, but for some reason arrived in Texas. Oh well, as long as I get it I’m not complaining.
With luck it will all be with us before Christmas. Gosh I need to get bookcases built, and quick.
Dear Customers:
Allied International is handling the customs clearance and delivery of your shipments. I will be your main contact should you have any questions or concerns.
As per our port broker, the vessel into Houston, TX on December 2nd, cleared customs on Dec 10th and demurrage has been paid to get the container released.
The container is now at our agent’s warehouse in Houston, TX and the deconsolidating process should take within 3 to 5 business days starting today.
For local moves within 0 up to 150 miles radius of Houston Jim Pinney from AI – Houston will be contacting you to schedule your moves when your shipments are ready.
For any other moves, I will be emailing each of you individually with our agent’s contact details once your shipment gets ready to be picked up from our Houston’s warehouse (please allow three to four days as your HHG might need to be loaded into lift vans/wooden crates). After receiving my next email please estimate another five to seven days (depending of the location of your residences) to be contacted by the agent performing your moves.
In the mean time, could you please confirm the addresses where you will be receiving your shipments??
Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me by email or by dialing the number in my signature.
Thanks for using Allied and good luck with your moves.
