Unaccompanied Carriage Pick-Up/Drop-Off Surcharge
Unaccompanied Carriage Pick-Up/Drop-Off Surcharge
The unaccompanied carriage of animals, parcels, or luggage from Metro NYC to Metro Boston incurs a Basic Carriage Transport Charge. The amounts of these Basic Carriage Transport Charges are for a pick-up occurring at a Manhattan address provided by GoSherpa and a drop-off at Cleveland Circle in Brookline (MA) . For a pick-up and/or a drop-off at other locations a surcharge applies.
Using the drop-down arrow below, select the Service Area category (based upon the guidance found in the section below) and Add To Cart.
Proceed to Check-Out at which time you will provide the Pick-Up Address, the Drop-Off Address, and the payment information.
GoSherpa’s service areas are described below in general terms. A per-location surcharge may apply. If you are unsure which of the 3 categories your pick-up and/or drop-off location falls into, please contact GoSherpa to inquire.

This surcharge is assessed for each location. Thus, if only your pick-up or your drop-off location is to be undertaken outside our Primary Service Area, then, add one surcharge only. If both your pick-up and drop-off locations are outside our Primary Service Areas, please add two surcharges - one for your pick-up and one for your drop-off locations.
