Least expensive way to get items shipped to Nassau
Post New Topic

I'm relocating to Nassau at the end of April for work. I'm not shipping household or car,,just clothes and personal items. I was told by people within my company to just take suitcases (even if I fill 7 suitcases) and take them on the plane with me. I will be flying from the US.
I wanted to see if anyone has any experience with this? Is this the least expensive way to get my belongings on island?
Thanks in advance for your input.

Yes, that is the cheapest way to get items over to Nassau. We lived there in 2015 when BahaMar was suppose to open. My husband and I each took 3 checked bags and 1 carry on. The first bag was $25, second $50 and third $150. We also shipped two smaller boxes over and it cost us $350 a box!!! Rookie mistake. If you are coming over alone, I don't think airlines will allow you to bring so many suitcases but just check on their individual websites.
