I plan to arrive in Sosua the second week of March 2016. I have been trying with no success to reach the mail forwarding company CPS. I want to set up an account with a Miami address so I can ship several small boxes to Sosua prior to my arrival. I was unable to reach a person at the Miami or Santo Domingo offices. I tried sending an e-mail but it would not go through. Finally, I reached the Santiago office. I was told that I have to set up an account at the Puerto Plata office to receive packages in Sosua.

Have any of you guys used CPS? If so, what have been your experience? Are there other mail forwarding companies that you would recommend? I have used Mail Boxes etc,. in other countries but it does not appear that it services puerto Plata or Sosua.
Thanks

Let us know if you still have questions. We use CPS all the time and are very happy with their service and outstanding customer service.

We use the office in Sosua.

Thank you Bob. I posted my question before I discovered that someone had already post a question about Mail forwarding companies.

Harry welcome to the forums!!!! I will send you me a Private Message, I can give you the email address for the Puerto Plata CPS office! The good news is you have lots of time before March.

I used the CPS office there for a couple of years, then I used the Santo Domingo office for 4 years and now another year in La Romana - ALL GOOD!!!!! Rarely a problem, decent pricing and good service.

Hope that helps you.

Yes there are several in SD. CPS there is awesome. Sending things to the US is more expensive sometimes, check the pricing.
