2Mares Logistics handles your international move from Panama from start to finish: inventory, packing, shipping by sea, air, or land, customs clearance, and delivery to your destination. Our entire team monitors every step of the process, so you don’t have to repeat the same information to different service providers.
An international move begins with a survey or pre-inspection to assess the volume of the move, either in person or via video call. The quote is prepared based on the customer’s belongings and is sent according to the results of the inspection.
The inventory distinguishes between used household goods or personal effects, electronic equipment, works of art, and industrial cargo, because each category requires different packing materials. Fragile or high-value items are documented with photographs before packing, as a backup in case the insurance company needs to assess a claim. Once the total volume has been determined, it is confirmed whether the shipment will fill an entire container or can be consolidated with another customer’s shipment, which affects both the cost and the estimated transit time.
Every move is different, which is why we evaluate the best mode of transportation based on your destination, volume, and needs. Ocean freight is usually the most cost-effective option for larger shipments, while air freight may be a better choice when you need faster delivery. We also offer ground transportation to Central America.
Transit times are estimates and may vary depending on shipping lines’ itineraries, route conditions, and each country’s customs procedures. For shipments to Central America, delivery can take approximately one week to ten days; for shipments to Europe or Asia, the estimated transit time is between five and eight weeks. Our team tracks every shipment and keeps you informed of any changes to the estimated transit times. If your cargo does not fill an entire container, we can explore consolidation options with other shipments traveling the same route.
An international move to Central America takes approximately one week to ten days, depending on each country’s customs regulations; to Europe or Asia, it takes between five and eight weeks. The clearance process in the destination country may add additional days, depending on local customs authorities.

Before confirming shipment, we check which documents are required by customs in the destination country and inform the customer of these requirements or request the necessary documentation in advance. This prevents the container from being held up while waiting for a document that could have been requested weeks earlier.
2Mares Logistics notifies you as soon as the shipping line or customs broker provides the information—not after the container has already arrived at the port. This proactive approach prevents weeks of avoidable delays in the final delivery.
