If you ship everything that way, you pay for empty space. With Next Day Cargo&#8217;s repackaging and consolidation you can combine your purchases and ship them in fewer, smaller, better-protected boxes to Venezuela, Honduras, Panama, Costa Rica and the rest of <a href=\"\/en\/envios-a-centroamerica\/\">Central America<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>What repackaging is<\/h2>\n<p>Repackaging means taking your products out of their original boxes and putting them in a new box of the right size. With your prior authorization, and at an extra cost, we offer two kinds of repackaging:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Into a single cardboard box,<\/strong> to combine several purchases and reduce the volume.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Into wooden crates,<\/strong> for fragile, delicate or valuable items that need more protection during the trip.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Our repackaging staff aims for two things: lowering the weight and volume of the cargo, and increasing the protection of your shipment.<\/p>\n<h2>What consolidation is<\/h2>\n<p>Consolidating means grouping several packages so they leave in the same shipment. By default, when packages arrive on different dates or from different suppliers, each one enters the system with its own tracking number and ships separately. That way we can track each package from start to finish.<\/p>\n<p>If you prefer, you can ask us to hold your packages until they all arrive, so they leave together, and to repack them into a single box.<\/p>\n<h2>Why you save<\/h2>\n<p>By air, you pay the greater of the actual weight and the <strong>volumetric weight<\/strong> of the box (length \u00d7 width \u00d7 height in inches \u00f7 139). By sea, you pay by <strong>cubic feet<\/strong> (length \u00d7 width \u00d7 height in inches \u00f7 1728). Either way, box size counts. A large, half-empty box costs the same as a full one.<\/p>\n<p>Example: two purchases arrive in 16 \u00d7 12 \u00d7 12 inch boxes, but their contents fit in a single 16 \u00d7 12 \u00d7 12 box. With two boxes you pay for 2 \u00d7 2,304 = 4,608 cubic inches; with one, for 2,304. That&#8217;s half the volume.<\/p>\n<h2>How to request it, step by step<\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Register the recipient<\/strong> for free in our <a href=\"\/en\/registro-de-clientes\/\">Customer Registration<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shop with our address:<\/strong> 8805 NW 35th Lane, Miami, FL 33172, in the recipient&#8217;s name.
