Hello Christian,
Did you find a way to ship your batteries? I'm currently trying to find a way to ship some batteries to my family in Puerto Rico too. I tried contacting FedEx Dangerous Goods group and they can ship them but the price is very high. I will keep searching, and if I find a way, I will let you know too.

Regards,
Milton

try LTL cargo freight forwarders in Jacksonville, FL. IE: Magic Transport, or Caribbean Express Freight. Good luck amigo.

Hi, did you ever get your batteries over to PR? Caribtrans ships from Florida. I’m looking to do the same from China, but trying to avoid the taxes. The sale of solar equipment is exempt from taxes in PR, but I want to ensure I won’t be hit with anything at the port.

I know this is an old thread but did you manage to get your batteries?

I ended up buying mine from signature solar and they do ship via freight here. The first time I ordered from them 2 years I go I shipped 6x server rack batteries, a server rack, 2 inverters and a pallet of 31 panels for ~$840. Order took less than 2 weeks to arrive.
