Re: Tincan Port Congestion by adexfem(m): 6:20pm On Dec 11, 2009
The dock workers are back to work today smiley

@Rothstein, you are very correct,sorry for the bad experience its rampant at that terminal.
Next time tell your agent to secure your cars from the terminal.Its possible to lock your car as soon as it gets down from the vessel.

I will advice u send it to Lagos port, i am sure all the congestion is only for the xmas period and sanity will return to the port before February

For the clearing, talk to the man with magics, and that person is no other than Adexfem.

I have been using him for a while and have no regrets.
Re: Tincan Port Congestion by Emperoh(m): 9:20pm On Dec 12, 2009
All and all. . .i think we'll still have it this way
Its pretty much heavy though i don't know what it looks like today.
Monday will present a clearer picture. This country self!!!

Adex
I understand the strike was as a result of NPA going to employ contract workers
to do the job the Dockworkers were meant to be doing?
How true is this? Also, where you at the Terminal today? What is it like?

Jenju
I understand Pearl Ace 61 is discharging as at today?
Ade i guess i am correct?
Re: Tincan Port Congestion by Rothstein: 11:31pm On Dec 12, 2009

Re: Tincan Port Congestion by Bassey131: 12:17pm On Dec 13, 2009
@ Emperoh,
I am shipping a vehicle (2002 Ford Ranger Pick-Up) from the US to arrive Lagos in mid January. Can you please recommend a good clearing agent for me? The vehicle costs me just under $2,000 by private sale and $1,500 for freight. How much do you think the total clearing costs will be? And how long will it take to clear the vehicle?

Many thanks.
Re: Tincan Port Congestion by Rothstein: 1:22pm On Dec 13, 2009
Tincan is a real subset of nija.i was told my other suv would not be discharged until thurs next wk.i talk wt an ilutex driver and he dropped d suv 4 me 2 day in 10 mins.nija my country! For fellow NLs i got a deeper life clearin agent who charge less and delivers on time.
Re: Tincan Port Congestion by Bassey131: 1:56pm On Dec 13, 2009
@ Rothstein,
Can you recommend a clearing agent, please?
By the way, what is ilutex driver?
Many thanks.
Re: Tincan Port Congestion by Rothstein: 2:07pm On Dec 13, 2009

Re: Tincan Port Congestion by Bassey131: 2:33pm On Dec 13, 2009

Re: Tincan Port Congestion by adexfem(m): 5:23pm On Dec 13, 2009
@emperoh, i was at the terminal yesterday and aquamarine was still discharging, we expect her to leave today sha.

@Rothstei, there are a lot of good agents around. Which vessel brought your vehicle?
Re: Tincan Port Congestion by Rothstein: 6:59pm On Dec 13, 2009
