    • Home Furnishings: Furniture, decor, and appliances for new residents.
    • Small Business Supplies: Inventory for local shops, restaurants, or service providers.

Tips for Shippers:

• Residential/Farm Delivery:
  • Specify driveway access, gate codes, or stable locations. For equestrian equipment, indicate if delivery requires a forklift or specialized handling.
• Cargo Preparation:
  • Label shipments with Odessa’s zip code (33556) and include a contact phone number for delivery coordination. Use sturdy packaging for fragile items (e.g., glassware, equine tack).
• Transit Time Optimization:
  • Sea freight via Tampa is cost-effective for non-urgent bulk orders; air freight via TPA is ideal for urgent shipments, especially during peak moving seasons (summer, winter).
• Insurance Coverage:
  • High-value or fragile items (e.g., antiques, equine gear) should be insured (recommended 1–3% of shipment value) to protect against transit damage or weather-related delays.
