Best way to ship computers from overseas

[Chandra Bajpai]

I need to ship about 200 pounds of computers, documentation and spares from
South Africa to Boston.  

 

Any suggestions on shipping this economically (and safely).  It seems FedEx
is quite expensive does not
make economic sense for me..are there alternate carriers or methods (e.g.
via Ship) that make sense to

Look at?

 

How do I deal with customs?

 

Thanks,

Chandra
