” After working with projects in Haiti for more than 25 years, and after having many insurmountable frustrations with unreliable, and, frequently, dishonest shippers, what a great surprise it was to find a company with impeccable integrity, reliable service, and consistent professionalism. How refreshing it has been to discover CAS Xpress who has repeatedly “gone the second mile.” Their reputation has been consistent with all of my contacts and friends. As a business, CAS Xpress is outstanding. But beyond that, their staff and also their president, Tony Marcelli, take a personal interest in “delivering the goods.” Repeatedly, they have “gone the second mile” to help their customers. They take a genuine interest in doing good for the Haitian people and not just for themselves. Recently, we needed a tractor in Gonaives. Shipping there has been so difficult, but they worked through ways that we never could to have it delivered promptly. It is obvious that CAS Xpress considers it their mission to partner with other NGO and missionary groups who are committed to bringing relief to the Haitian people. Thank you CAS Xpress for filling a great vacuum and need through your company to reduce our shipping frustrations. We appreciate you so much.”

“We started using Caribbean American Shipping Express in July 2005, all our shipments have been delivered on time and intact as their door to door delivery is not only excellent but very reliable. In addition the fact they they clear customs for you eliminates the unknown and any potential foul-ups that could happen. Right after the earth quake everybody wanted and needed to get their relief items to Haiti and with the port in Port au Prince closed it created a back log of freight. However all our relief items including a 120′ x 80′ tent that we shipped for housing and worship was delivered as promised. I have found that Maybeline Dugue-Despagne and all the employees at Caribbean American Shipping Express are very professional and eager to help you.”

“Thank you for the excellent service you gave us to get the container loaded at your dock in Hollywood. Compared to what we have gone through previously, this was a dream trip!”

“Our Immaculate Conception/St Jules Haiti team has been very pleased with the service we have received from Cas Xpress. We frequently ship medical supplies and medicines to our very rural clinic in Northwest Haiti. We have come to rely heavily on the expert service of Cas Xpress in the timely shipment of these vital medical items. Maybelline and her staff are a lot of fun to work with and are very helpful in accommodating us when we ship. We have NEVER lost a box of valuable medical supplies when shipping Cas Xpress to Haiti. In years past, we did lose items all the time with other shippers to Haiti and this caused considerable problems for our staff and the patients we serve. Thank God there is a reliable company carrying these life saving items to a country suffering and in pain.
Keep up the great work!!!!”

“My experience with CASXpress and its president, Maybeline Despagne, has been with shipping clinical laboratory equipment and supplies to Hopital Sacre Coeur in Milot Haiti. ( sponsored by the CRUDEM Foundation–an acronym for Center for Rural Development of Milot).I am so impressed with the way in which Maybeline keeps track of all cargo traffic in and out—by air or by container. She is on top of whereabouts of every box. We ship large and small fragile instruments and expensive/ expendable lab reagents, many requiring refrigeration. If she anticipates a delay in air service, e.g. over a weekend, she stores reagents in her refrigerator so they won’t be setting in some hot place. Obviously we are extremely satisfied and grateful for this excellent service and highly recommend CASXpress to others.”
