Some moves look forward. Others look toward home.

Florida was home to hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans: Doral, Weston, Orlando — all of Miami filled with familiar accents. But some stories ask to return: the family waiting, the business to pick back up, the life you want to continue where it began. If you're organizing your return to Venezuela from Miami — or from any city in Florida — you don't have to do it alone.

At JJ Marí we understand that a return move isn't just any move. It's bringing back the years you lived: the furniture you chose, the memories you gathered, the things that made a house in Doral a piece of home. Our job is to make sure all of it crosses the Caribbean with you, intact.

The Miami → Caracas route, explained clearly

How long does a move from Miami to Caracas take? The complete transit, from pickup at your home in Florida to delivery in Caracas, takes approximately 45 days by sea. We keep you informed at every step of the way.

How does your move travel? We coordinate pickup and packing at your home in Miami or any Florida city through our international network of certified agents. Your cargo departs from PortMiami or Port Everglades toward the port of La Guaira, and from there our team in Venezuela takes it to your door.

Full or shared container? If you're taking a whole home, an exclusive 20 or 40 ft container is the right choice. If your volume is smaller — an apartment, or just the essentials — consolidated cargo (LCL) lets you share a container and reduce costs. The price is calculated by cubic meters, which is why we always start with a free survey and a transparent quote, no fine print.

And Venezuelan customs? We handle customs clearance at La Guaira and guide you from day one on the current requirements for bringing in used household goods and personal effects as a returning Venezuelan. The paperwork is ours; the peace of mind, yours.

Returning to Venezuela from the United States: what's worth knowing

The Venezuelan community in the United States is concentrated in Florida — more than 470,000 people, with Doral at its heart. And more and more families are weighing the return. If that's your case, take note:

Start with 2 to 3 months of lead time. Between the survey, packing in Miami, the sea transit (~45 days) and clearance in Venezuela, the calendar rules. Planning early avoids rushes and extra costs.

Your status as a returning Venezuelan matters. Used household goods and personal effects are processed under different regimes than commercial cargo. We tell you which documents to prepare before leaving the United States — some are easier to obtain while you're still there.

What about the car? Importing vehicles into Venezuela is restricted and applies only under specific conditions. Before selling or shipping, ask us: we'll tell you frankly what's viable in your case.

Decide what travels and what doesn't. Part of our method is asking what matters most to you before we pack. We help you optimize volume: sometimes it's better to bring less, and better.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a move from Miami to Caracas cost?

Every move is different, like every story. The cost depends on the volume in cubic meters and the type of service (exclusive or consolidated container). The survey is free and the quote transparent: it reflects exactly what you need to move and how you want to do it.

How long does the move take?

Approximately 45 days door to door from Miami to Caracas, by sea. From day one you'll be accompanied and informed.

How is the survey done if I'm in Florida?

In person or by video call. You walk through your home with us, we build the estimated inventory and send you the quote. Simple and no-obligation.

Can I send just a few boxes or a single item?

Yes. From a small consolidated shipment to a single piece — a work of art, a piece of furniture, a family heirloom. If it matters to you, it's enough for us.

What documents do I need to bring my household goods into Venezuela?

Each case has its particulars, but you don't face it alone. We tell you the required documentation as a returning Venezuelan from the start and handle every procedure with you.
