iContainers Omdömen 

Biggest pro
- The price estimated for our family moving 20ft container US to Spain, was actually what I ended up paying overall within a very small percentage (unlike other shippers that changed the quote on me at the last second).
- when we incurred in extra fee, in part due to us and in part to them, they reduced the cost to about 100bucks which is way lower than expected (I am used to ship commercially at work and aware of market costs).

Other pro
- there always was somebody from their side attending our questions, sometime within minutes, sometimes within few days.
- the estimator Del Rio in US was clear since day one on all their rules (each shipper has different ones) and customs rules in Spain (same for all) to avoid incurring in non applicable tax, tariffs, VAT, etc.
- paper processing and delivery in Spain was fast, thank you Alba and great truck driver.

Cons
- at each step there is one of their people assisting you. Some are more professionally prepared, others a little less, rookies. They all acted in good faith. Unlike what they will state, rarely they will reply once the ball is not in their court.
- Be proactive yourself and prepare as much as you can in advance. You might be introduced to the next step person just on time; that could be improved to allow ppl get their paperwork with local authorities that takes time.

Overall we had a great experience. Good luck with your move. I hope it was my last one ;)

iContainers (and its subcontractors) had lost a significant part of our cargo. There was no possibility that it could've just gotten lost -- so it was obviously stolen. Then they kept promising to find it (for many weeks) -- until it became clear that they're not acting in good faith, because it's very large-sized, and there must be cameras in their warehouses, etc. ...No compensation was ever offered for this loss/theft -- even though they knew that this catastrophe occurred in combination with (on top of) our being overcharged along the way for various services. We could've given them repeat business; but not after this experience.

Los conozco desde hace años habiendo trabajado juntos. Hace una meses un cliente mío con destino Uruguay me contrató su mudanza internacional y a través de Icontainers y sus correspondientes exteriores todo volvió a salir como siempre!!!! PERFECTO 💯💯💯💪💪

MUY RECOMENDABLE. EL MEJOR TRANSITARIO ESPAÑOL QUE CONOZCO

Cierras un precio para tu envío.
Cuando el contenedor está a punto de llegar, te lo cambian de forma importante.

Si no pagas, empiezan costes diarios en puerto (≈150€/día).

En ese punto, ya no tienes margen: o aceptas o empiezas a perder dinero cada día.

Eso fue exactamente lo que me ocurrió. Con la mercancía ya en tránsito y cerca de llegada, se me comunicó un cambio en el importe. La alternativa era asumir costes diarios mientras la mercancía quedaba bloqueada.

Resultado: tienes que pagar para poder retirar la mercancía.

Tenlo claro antes de contratar: cuando tu envío esté en ruta, puedes quedarte sin capacidad real de decisión.

Terrible service company, they are not actually a logistic company. They overcharge, their personnel lacks of knowledge for import/ export and makes huge mistakes. Stay away from this company, specially if you are trying to move commercial goods.

The ability to help us solve problems and answer all our questions. They work well with our company!

Siempre he tenido a una persona de la empresa para poder comunicarme vía email o teléfono y consultar mis dudas, lo cual ha sido de gran ayuda ya que era la primera vez que importaba productos desde china.

The customer service I have received from iContainers has been simply outstanding. I would like to especially call out the Air Freight Team Leader, for her careful attention to two recent shipments, one of which was a small box, hardly a profitable shipment for iContainers. I felt I received the same service as if I had shipped full containers for thousands of dollars in shipping fees. She provides an outstanding example of customer service.

The customer service I have received from my account representative and the Export Operations Specialist for their excellent customer service also.

It is because of the customer service that I will highly recommend iContainers to anyone needing an international shipping service.

I had a really bad experience shipping a pallet of personal effects (used books, clothes, shoes etc) from new York city to Barcelona, where we were moving back to. They were efficient at taking my money, all up front, and booking the freight on fedex. They told me what paperwork was required, approved what I sent them, and the shipment got held up in Spanish customs because the paperwork wasn't right. It turns out that your padrón (the document that records your presence and address in Spain) can't be dated more than a year prior to the shipping date. So Spanish customs demanded about €4000 in taxes on a shipment valued at $1300. They arrived at this amount because they charge 21% VAT on value + ship cost. Our shipping cost was $1700 but because we shipped by air some formula per kilo was used instead of the actual cost. This was all news to Icontainers, whose response, one week later, was to ask their customs agent, fedex spain, "what do we do?". I got nothing but platitudes for 3 weeks from Icontainers. Meanwhile storage costs were mounting, my wife needed her books for her job, we had no warm clothes, etc. There was talk of the pallet being sent back to new York if we didn't pay this €4000-ish tax (I couldn't get a bill or even an exact amount from them). I tried writing to the anonymous fedex email that they were using (they cc'd me on a few emails to them), but I got no response and apparently, neither did they. I spent half a day knocking on doors at the Barcelona airport's freight periphery, finally squeezing past security in the fedex building, where I found someone sympathetic. She didn't work in the customs area but knew people who did, and gave me a name of a customs subinspector who would see me. He looked at the file and suggested I change the owner of the shipment to my wife, as she had a padrón that was more recent. I sent this documentation to Icontainers and kept waiting. Nothing. I finally found another customs agent, had to pay fedex to release me from the contract Icontainers had set me up with them, and pay the customs guy 200€. He changed the name to my wife's and 12 hours later the pallet was delivered.

The stress of this, all our stuff and particularly my wife's entire library possibly getting sent back to new York and racking up thousands more in air freight and God knows what other fees, was pretty intense. The Icontainers people in Miami left me out to dry My hunch is they have much bigger fish to fry than a family moving a pallet of their personal possessions.

I used iContainers to ship a baby crib from Los Angeles to Singapore, expecting it to take the standard 7–10 days (as it had for a friend who shipped the exact same type of package). Instead, the entire experience was disorganized, frustrating, and ended up taking almost two months.

Communication was extremely poor throughout the process. I had to follow up repeatedly just to confirm whether my payment had been received—despite sending it three separate times. There was no proactive update, no clear timeline, and no sense of urgency from their side. Yet I still ended up paying the same amount—over $550—for a shipment that took almost eight times longer than expected.

Thankfully, I had planned ahead and didn’t urgently need the crib, but if I had needed it right after giving birth, this would have been a complete disaster. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend iContainers. Their lack of organization and communication caused unnecessary stress, and the service I received absolutely did not match the cost.

Unfortunately I used Icontainers to relocate my household items from Toronto, Ontario, Canada to Panama City, Panama. I worked with Christina Armigo, Manel Aragones, and Ana Echeverri, and my experience was a total nightmare.

I agreed to a relocation package with a defined timeline and price, but after paying and signing the documents, their team pushed back my delivery date and increased my price by nearly $1,000.

I gave Christina 7 weeks notice to coordinate my move, but the process has still been an unorganized and chaotic disaster.

During the loading process of putting my household items into the shipping container in Toronto, the movers also attempted to extort me for $1,600 saying icontainers didn’t pay them!

Due to their carelessness and terrible planning, I was forced to rent a furnished apartment in Panama City for 2 months, and I accrued another ~$10,000 in expenses.

My relocation fees more than doubled because of icontainers unprofessional negligence. I highly discourage anyone to work with them.

It's not really a shipping company. All they do is take your information and then arrange your shipment, connecting you with various services, packing, loading, moving, unloading, storage, etc., while they're in the middle taking their part. They're just intermediaries. They don't offer any services directly. and they want the whole payment upfront. so as they not offer any services directly their dates are only approximate, so don't count on time in advance to get your plane tickets. They can give you notice from one day to the next, making you pay much more for your plane ticket.I do not recommend this ""company"" at all.

Title: Stress-free move from Miami to Barcelona

Moving internationally with iContainers was a 10/10 experience!
• Quick and accurate estimate: Their online calculator gave me an instant quote, which made planning much easier.
• Flawless paperwork handling: They took care of all the documentation and kept me informed at every step.
• Exceptional care with belongings: I was especially worried about my crystal champagne glasses and other fragile items — everything arrived in perfect condition, not a single glass broken.
• Consistent communication: They were always available to answer questions and kept me calm throughout the process.

If you’re planning an international move and want to avoid headaches, I highly recommend iContainers. Professional, efficient, and above all — reliable.

Mi hermana y yo nos mudamos desde Colombia hasta España y la experiencia con iContainers fue espectacular! José Antonio y Manel nos asesoraron con mucha paciencia y claridad, todas nuestras pertenencias llegaron súper bien. Recomendamos mucho a esta empresa para realizar sus mudanzas.

No se hicieron responsables por la perdida de mi mercancía . No respondieron a mi reclamación formal de devolverme los gastos.

They cancelled my Booking #2105424, with the false reason of MSC not accepting salvage cars shipped in a container to Beirut Lebanon, it's a week and I have not received my refund. I have sent emails twice to MAURICIO and no responds. I have called him and no responds. Be careful with them, they are not genuine
