Origin Services (from Barbados)
Free Survey and Quotation
An estimator will visit your residence or office to survey all items to be shipped, listen to your special requests, and offer you advice and guidance as it relates to restrictions and requirements. At the time of the survey, it would be helpful if information such as allowances, special shipment requirements, crating needs, insurance coverage, storage requirements and packing and delivery schedules could be provided. Garraway will then provide you with a written quotation personalized to your needs.
Note: ALL estimates are provided free of charge but are subject to 10%
variation and may vary
due to changes in the quantity or nature of the goods shipped, if they
do not match those shown to our estimator.
