Shipping a car from Miami to SXM

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone currently on SXM has tried this "Tropical Shipping Company"? I was looking through some other SXM blogs and found the following post:

shipping a car through Tropical shipping (Get the number on-line) was decent deal,about $1,000 I think. You'd have to get it to Miami (or an hour north of miami really..) Seems steep, but cars sell for more there and repairs are a pain, so it's worth it if your car is in decent shape. Tropical allows (or used to) you to ship the car full of stuff for no extra charge. I don't recall the exact details, something allong the lines of 3o square feet, as long as it doesn't go too far over the bottoms of the windows. You can insure it with most US renters or homeowners insurance as "moving"

They also used to let you ship a container sized load (ie- tons of room) for a somethign in the 2-3 hundred range.
