The Delco Group Ltd

The Delco Group, Ltd. has been a fixture in the international trade community since 1981, building a reputation as a full-service customs broker and global logistics provider from its offices in Great River, New York. Located at 3500 Sunrise Highway on Long Island, Delco serves importers and exporters who ship through the New York/New Jersey port complex — one of the busiest cargo gateways on the East Coast — as well as JFK International Airport and other major US ports of entry.

As a CBP-licensed customs broker with filer code DEL, The Delco Group prepares and files customs entries across all modes of transport, including ocean, air, and truck. For importers, this means accurate HTS code classification, proper valuation, and timely submission of documentation to avoid costly delays at the border. First-time importers benefit from Delco's decades of experience navigating CBP requirements, including import bond requirements, continuous customs bond procurement, and ISF 10+2 filing — the Importer Security Filing that ocean shippers must submit at least 24 hours before cargo is loaded at a foreign port.

Beyond standard entry preparation, Delco operates as a licensed NVOCC with full tariff authority worldwide, giving clients access to competitive ocean freight rates on full container loads (FCL), less-than-container loads (LCL), and break bulk movements from virtually any international origin. Their IATA license and TSA certification extend these capabilities to air freight, making Delco a single point of contact for importers with time-sensitive shipments.

The firm's independent ownership structure is a meaningful advantage for cost-conscious importers. Without allegiance to any single carrier, Delco negotiates across multiple steamship lines and air carriers to match cargo with equipment availability, space, and rate — factors that vary significantly by trade lane and season.

Importers looking into duty drawback programs, prior disclosure filings with CBP, or type 86 entry customs procedures for low-value e-commerce shipments under the Section 321 de minimis threshold will find that Delco's long operating history gives them familiarity with both routine clearances and more complex compliance matters. With a toll-free line (1-800-253-7527) and a dedicated quotes email, The Delco Group is accessible to businesses across the country, not just those searching for a customs broker near Long Island or the greater New York metro area.
