Chapter 46 - Shipping Personal Goods Uploaded: 11/22/2009

This is a two part interview with Arden Brink. 

Arden and her husband Dave moved here to Costa Rica in 2006, bringing with then TWO 40' containers loaded (to the max) with everything they owned.

Part 1 deals with shipping your personal household goods while Part 2 "touches" on the pros and cons of shipping your personal automobile.

PART 1: PERSONAL POSSESSIONS

PART 2: SHIPPING YOUR CAR

BE AWARE... The import tax tax in Costa Rica is hefty (to say the least).  Do your research before you commit to bring in a car from outside Costa Rica.  And for goodness sake... only bring in cars which are popular in Costa Rica and can be easily repaired.

Today, Arden works for Ship Costa Rica and assists new expats in their quest for Pura Vida.
