When most people think of freight forwarding in the Bahamas, the first name that comes to mind is Nassau. As the capital and the busiest shipping port in the country, Nassau receives the lion’s share of cargo traffic. But what about businesses and residents in Eleuthera or other out islands like Exuma, Abaco, or Andros?

For those located beyond Nassau, getting shipments delivered can feel like navigating a maze. That’s where Baum Shipping steps in — offering reliable, end-to-end freight forwarding solutions to Eleuthera and the out islands of the Bahamas that most carriers overlook.

The Challenge: Limited Shipping Access to Out Islands

While Nassau serves as a major hub, many freight forwarders stop there — leaving customers to figure out last-mile delivery on their own. This can result in:

• Delays due to inter-island transit coordination
• Increased costs from multiple hand-offs
• Difficulty clearing customs on outer islands
• A lack of reliable door-to-door delivery options

If you’re located in places like Current Eleuthera, you’ve likely felt this frustration firsthand. But logistics shouldn’t be limited by location.

The Solution: Full-Service Freight Forwarding to Eleuthera and Beyond

Baum Shipping is changing the game. Unlike typical forwarders who limit their scope to Nassau, Baum provides comprehensive freight forwarding throughout the Bahamas, including direct support for Eleuthera and other outer islands.

Here’s what sets our service apart:

• Door-to-Door Delivery – From international origin to your exact island address (like Lot 14 in Current Eleuthera), we manage the full journey.
• Island-Specific Customs Clearance – We handle customs at the final destination, not just Nassau, reducing the risk of miscommunication and delays.
• Reliable Inter-Island Trucking & Ferry Coordination – Our experienced team works with vetted local partners to ensure timely transfers across sea and land.
• Flexible Routing – Whether your shipment arrives via Miami, Fort Lauderdale, or another global hub, we create efficient routing plans tailored to your needs.

Freight Forwarding in the Bahamas Requires Local Insight

Each island in the Bahamas has unique infrastructure, import restrictions, and delivery expectations. Shipping to Eleuthera, for example, requires precise coordination with ferry schedules, trucking availability, and local customs officials — not to mention familiarity with rural addresses that often go unrecognized by standard shipping systems.

Baum Shipping brings both global freight expertise and regional know-how, giving customers peace of mind no matter how remote the destination.

Who We Serve

Whether you’re a homeowner building on Eleuthera, a business importing goods to the out islands, or a contractor needing regular materials delivered beyond Nassau, we’re here to help.

We routinely handle:

• Residential shipments to addresses like Lot 14, Current Eleuthera
• Construction materials and tools for builders on outer islands
• Retail goods for local Bahamian businesses
• Specialized equipment that needs gentle, secure handling

Don’t Let Location Limit Your Logistics

If your freight forwarder only goes as far as Nassau, you’re not getting the full service you deserve. At Baum Shipping, we believe that every address in the Bahamas — no matter how remote — should be reachable, reliable, and respected.
