I was pleased with the shipping of my Honda CR-V to PR. AutoStar kept me informed throughout the shipping from start to finish. My only complaint would be with the information they gave me about paying the "import tax" in Puerto Rico, a collecting agency called Haciendo (SURI) which collects taxes for PR. They gave me step-by-step ideas, but the bottom line is...who wants to deal with the I.R.S. I found a company called "Unlimited Services" that for 65 dollars, handled the paperwork and paid my tax ; in one day, they emailed me the 2 papers that I needed to get my car from the shipper's lot, Tote. Especially if you don't speak Spanish like me, and you are importing a car to PR, use Unlimited Services located at "Cromley Terminal Office" in San Juan. They do business out of a modest white trailer in the Cromley parking lot in a corner of the lot. You can't miss it...they were very nice and extremely experienced at handling the task.

From Valerie @ 888-802-8250 Ext 2252: Thanks Garth, for taking the time to leave the review and recommendation. We provide the step-by-step instructions as a guide for our customers, in relation to tax payment. We don’t have access to Customs, hence, why we cannot assist with that, but we do try to provide as much information as possible, with the little information Hacienda provides. That said, we really do appreciate your recommendation as this can help facilitating that part of the process for future customers. If you or anyone you know need assistance with a future transportation, please feel free to email me at Valerie.barriga@autostartransport.com or text at 786-871-0019. Thanks!
