Shipping a vehicle to Shell Harbor
Shell Harbor is a waterfront neighborhood in Sanibel, Lee County. Narrow, low-clearance streets with limited turnarounds and overhanging trees. Expect a short shuttle from a wide staging point rather than a full-size carrier at the driveway.
Tell us the address and the gate you use. We give the association the carrier name, driver name and truck description ahead of time, confirm the arrival window with you, and keep the same point of contact from dispatch through delivery.
