nairaspace: Do i send the original title with the trucking company delivering at the port?


The original title must be delivered along with the vehicle at the port. Hence, the trucker must be in possession of it for the vehicle to be accepted. For easier and fast shipping, send it to Galveston, Texas.

It could be the work of dock workers and this pilfering can be done at the point of discharge from the ship or the handiwork of a greedy clearing agent(agent rarely does this though).
Best to just count your loss and move on.

Frankly,Grimaldi is.
They have what i would term the safest terminal in Nigeria.
His is certainly an isolated case.

The next sailing vessel is fully booked. This is the information I got from my freight forwarder. You will probably have to wait till end of October or November.

In that case, the vessel carrying it must have sailed. It is not a new booking.

Grande Gabon GGA 0813 ETD from Bayonne Port, NJ is 31st October. The same vessel loads from Jacksonville, Savannah and Baltimore on 24, 25 and 27 respectively. You can get to follow and possibly track on their site.

Thanks a million. So the two weeks journey period to Lagos will be from Nov 1, right?

@bellong and gurus in the house:
Can you please confirm the current location of grande Gabon to me? If it left US on Nov 1 as scheduled, this should be the second week. So, should I not have received the B/L by now?

I will advice you do a Telex release for such unit . . . . NDLEA are now crazy with almost any package coming into Nigeria.
Re: Unending Delays On Shipments With Grimaldi by Peacefullife: 9:35pm On Nov 09, 2013
Bros Fhemmmy: Pls what do you mean by telex release? Is it a form of fax or email? Can it also be used for clearing purposes? Pls educate me on this.

Peacefullife: Bros Fhemmmy: Pls what do you mean by telex release? Is it a form of fax or email? Can it also be used for clearing purposes? Pls educate me on this.

Tell your shipping agent that you would rather prefer a Telex release at this point . . . It is just an e-mail that ordered the unit to be released without the paper original BOL . . . It cost extra money to secure, but it is easier for you to deal with, cos once you have it, you just email it to your agent.
Last time i sent a BOL paper to Nigeria , NDLEA intercepts it and they requested me to send dumb info from Canada to them, which i did but took few days before i was able to get the paper back from them and remember anyone with the BOL could clear your ride and besides, time is not really on your side on this unit.
Good luck

Make we give thanks to God oh . . . But you will have to hurry and talk to the shipping coy . . . Once payment is made, you could get it same day or following day and it will be an e-mail to you and most shipping comapny will attach the electronic original BOL to that mail.
Re: Unending Delays On Shipments With Grimaldi by Peacefullife: 12:36pm On Nov 10, 2013
All right sir.

Once again, Thank God. Also, thank you.
