I am thinking about using the US Mail Global Express to ship some boat parts (small package about 11 lbs, non electrical just mechanical) down to
Loreto wondering if anyone has used this method before and what results you had? Will there be any taxes or duty fees applied?Mula - 8-1-2012 at 05:48 PM
Good Luck!
Be interested to know how it works.Jay - 8-1-2012 at 06:00 PM
Thanks do you have any suggestion on how to ship items from the US.DavidE - 8-1-2012 at 06:13 PM
Check with a Mexican agency called ADUANA (SHCP SAT)
At the airport. This is the official government taxation body.Mula - 8-1-2012 at 06:23 PM
Check with Estefata (sp?) on Misioneros and Benito Juarez - before Agua Dulce.Mulegena - 8-1-2012 at 08:57 PM
You might u2u Mariz for advice.
She receives things via a shipper in Texas that sends to Loreto via Estafeta.
I'd like to know this info, too; please share whatcha find.Loretana - 8-1-2012 at 09:08 PM
Jay,
get ready for some whopping shipping charges.
I sent an envelope with a set of keys via DHL/Estafeta and it cost $62.00.
But at least they got there!DavidE - 8-2-2012 at 01:19 AM
Heavy packages are not insanely expensive. I don't know why 10 envelopes cost the same as an 8 kilo box. Sort of nuts IMHOncampion - 8-2-2012 at 06:34 AM
I recently shipped a package to La Paz by FedEx. It got there in three days, but cost $80 USD. This was a large envelop. FedEx would not ship to
Loreto, so had to go to La Paz. Try Mariz, she has a forwarding service from US to Loreto.DavidE - 8-2-2012 at 07:56 AM
February 2012
My letters to Mexico City stopped being tracked* when they departed Phoenix, AZ. Four of them, over a two week period. Sent registered mail, U.S. Post
Office postmaster said the postal service would not offer return receipt service, would not offer insurance. Sixteen Dollars each U.S. at a major U.S.
Post Office.
What did I do wrong?
*Last tracking point when they departedlarryC - 8-2-2012 at 08:10 AM

You might try asking on this board if there is anyone going to Loreto soon that could take the package for you. Probably save you some time and money.

How does a person gain access to in-Mexico information on the US Postal Service tracking website? Everything just stopped on the site as the items
departed the last transfer point.

When I clicked on the link "Track And Confirm" it just took me back to the page I was on, that had the info cease as the item left the USA.
There's got to be a way to do it but the USA postmasters didn't know the answer. I sure would appreciate learning about this. Thanks!DavidE - 8-2-2012 at 07:06 PM
Mil gracias!Jay - 8-2-2012 at 08:40 PM
Thanks to everybody for their input.I had a Nomad come through and offer to take my parts down with him.It couldn't have worked out better.seanmiller - 9-28-2017 at 03:31 AM
Should be easy if the logistics have break bulk automation system.BajaBlanca - 9-28-2017 at 07:23 AM
Get this everyone: when we first moved to La Bocana BCS 12 years ago, Les's company wanted to send him some important documents and said they were
going to send them via courier for NEXT DAY delivery.
Good luck with that, we thought. Our streets had names but no numbers (still don't). There isn't even a sign indicating where we are on highway 1.
and next day ???? from San Diego hahaha
Two or three days later someone knocks on our front door with the envelope! I have no idea what company it was but what a feat. Money talks, that is
for sure. tehag - 9-28-2017 at 10:18 AM
Estafeta works. BajaBlanca - 9-28-2017 at 02:13 PM
we tried sending a cell phone via BajaPack and it did not arrive in Santa Rosalia from La Paz.
Estafeta sounds better, by the look of it.
Great that someone came through to bring your stuff down!Pescador - 9-29-2017 at 11:46 AM
I use Bajapack all the time and it works well. you get a shipping receipt and can follow online. gallesram - 9-29-2017 at 12:07 PM
