A. Duie Pyle, the Northeast United States' leading transportation and logistics provider, is now offering a one-source transportation service to the Caribbean. The service area includes Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, St. Thomas, and St. Croix.

The new venture, which is being operated from A. Duie Pyle's Carteret, NJ, Service Center, involves the shipment of goods from Port Elizabeth, NJ, to the Caribbean. "The goal is to provide a single source solution for shippers, giving them basically 'door-to-door' delivery," said Steve O'Kane, A. Duie Pyle President.

The new Caribbean service covers next-day inland ground transportation, container loading and drayage, ocean transport, and island delivery. "We'll continue our tradition of being the most predictable LTL carrier, as we bring the same level of on-time performance and low claims to our shipments outside the US," O'Kane added.

"We saw our clients' needs and expanded our services to accommodate and further serve those customers. We remain committed to the same level of customer service as we move beyond our normal shipping area."

Included in the overall service offering to the Caribbean, A. Duie Pyle will provide real-time shipment visibility, with the most advanced satellite tracking available to shippers in the Northeast, including automatic email updates and advance delivery notification. Complete invoice handling has the flexibility to accommodate all invoicing needs, whether prepaid door-to-door, collect door-to-door, or prepaid to Port Elizabeth collect beyond.' A. Duie Pyle also offers complete documentation handling and dedicated customer services, operating out of both its US headquarters in West Chester, PA, and Guaynabo, Puerto Rico, locations.
