We have integrated the key components of the logistics chain to provide our customers with a seamless door-to-door service.  Customers therefore have the option to pick from any aspect or the full complement of services, based on their needs.  Key to all we do, however, is consulting with clients to truly understand their needs and guiding them to make appropriate decisions throughout the logistical process to improve on cost and efficiency.

Our services also include procurement of permits and licences.  We liaise with the various government agencies and departments to secure the relevant permits, certificates required to clear your cargo or process your export.
 
JTS has been involved in the movement and clearance of cargo for extensive local projects, including the retooling of a major refinery, construction plants, building and refurbishing major hotels, road construction and rehabilitation, as well as music and entertainment events.
 
We  Offer: 
  • Cost and options of transport services
  • Cargo handling and monitoring
  • Vessel, customs and transport documentation
  • Overall transport coordination and bookings

Transportation

We deliver to your door, be it personal or commercial cargo, less than or full container loads (LCL & FCL). We utilise tractor-trailer trucks, small vans and special equipment such as lowboys or flatbeds. Whatever your transportation needs are, we will provide suitable options and expert advice and follow through.

Packaging

We have been handling add-on services for decades. These include packaging services for boxes, fumigated or heat-treated crates or pallets, shrink wrapping, bubble wraps and barrels.

In view of the heightened COVID concerns, JTS has taken measures to ensure the safety of our clients and partners which we continue to review and adjust as required.

Within our office space we have:

  • Established a “must wear mask” policy
  • Provided dispensers of sanitizers
  • Established social distancing points.
  • Routine disinfecting of office space and surfaces.

On a daily basis, staff members and clients are screened when entering and leaving the facility; this in conjunction with Kingston Wharves Ltd. where we are housed. 

In addition to these measures, we implore clients who have travelled overseas to refrain from visiting our office until some 14 days of quarantine. This requirement extends to immediate family

members and persons living in the same household as the customer who recently arrived from overseas.  We have a zero-tolerance policy in this regard, and you will not be allowed on the facility.  If perchance you bypass the security, you will not be served but will be promptly escorted from the facility.  After quarantining, you are asked to present your discharge certificate which is obtained at your nearest health centre.

 

If you are importing personal effects, you may simply provide details on your cargo and your TRN information and we will process your customs declaration online for you.  As before, with us you have the option for an end-to-end service, so do take advantage of the opportunity.  Speak to one of our representatives for the additional information or email us at info@shipdoortdoor.com

Since April 2020, the port operators have also established a few policies; in line with directives from Jamaica Customs Agency and the Government of Jamaica.  These include but are not limited to:

  • All areas and workstations are generally cleaned and disinfected.
  • All terminal users must wear a mask that covers nose and mouth – you will not be allowed otherwise.
  • Temperature checks at entry points.
  • Social distancing with floor signs to guide you
  • Sanitisation areas have been installed.
  • Online appointments for next and same day processing for personal and commercial shipments, full and less than container loads.
  • Online client services cashiering, validation, and documentation operations. Mobile apps allow you to view and pay your shipping charges from your android mobile phones.
  • PCS appointments will be accommodated on Sundays, up to 12 noon, to facilitate containers expected from vessels discharging on the weekend and whose manifests might not have been uploaded in PCS.As it relates to regular FCL appointments, all port guidelines remain in effect–Customers are allowed two roll-over days; if the second appointment is missed, a new appointment must be made, and restocking fees will apply. No manual appointments are being accepted.

JTS cares about you and want to ensure that you and all our stakeholders remain safe as you go about interfacing with us and the ports.
