WPM Separations
As an authorized CBP Examinations site we’re also able to separate unauthorized, untreated wood entering the country from your freight and package it for the return to its country of origin. This means that neither you or your customer will need to pay double the handling and double the transportation costs if your examined shipment needs to have its dunnage returned overseas, saving you time and money.
