Shipping Auto Components from Shunde to Buenaventura via Ocean Freight

For moisture-sensitive Auto parts, Use inner Moisture-barrier bags around each component, then place them in Sturdy cartons with sufficient cushioning. Seal all seams with strong packing tape and clearly mark cartons “Keep Dry”. For export or long-duration transit, evaluate adding moisture absorbers inside master cartons and, if needed, inside the shipping container.

You Can ship Tires with boxed Auto parts, but They should be physically separated and properly secured. Logistics providers commonly recommend palletizing boxed Vehicle components and then stacking or racking car tires so they do not press against or rub cartons. Avoid placing heavy loose vehicle tires on top of fragile or moisture-sensitive Automotive parts, as this can cause crushing or punctures during transit.

Fluid-filled Auto parts such as fuel system components, shock absorbers, or oil coolers May require Hazardous materials declarations, depending on the type and quantity of fluid. You should verify whether the product is classified as dangerous goods under DOT and IATA regulations and include the appropriate safety data sheets (SDS), UN numbers, and packing group information if applicable. Even when not regulated as hazardous, clearly note “Contains Fluids – Keep Upright” on packaging and shipping documents to guide carriers.

High-value Car parts such as engines, transmissions, ECUs, and safety modules Are best shipped with Full-value cargo insurance. Carrier default liability Is often limited and may not cover the full replacement cost of specialized vehicle parts. We recommend insuring based on replacement value, documenting serial numbers and condition at pickup, and retaining invoices and packing lists so any claim for loss, impact damage, or moisture-related failure is processed efficiently.

To reduce damage in mixed Automotive pallet loads, Place the heaviest metal components at the bottom, with lighter boxes and Tires above. Use Corner boards, shrink wrap and bands to stabilize the load and prevent shifting. Keep moisture-sensitive Car parts toward the center of the pallet, away from potential leaks or condensation on trailer walls, and prominently mark any fragile or orientation-sensitive cartons so handlers can respect correct handling procedures.

When shipping auto parts, it is important to ensure that all items are securely packaged to prevent damage during transit. Additionally, certain auto parts may require special handling procedures due to their size, weight, or fragility. Proper labeling and securing of cargo in containers is essential to comply with international shipping standards.

The required documentation typically includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any applicable certificates of origin or compliance. It is also important to ensure that all auto parts comply with Colombian import regulations, which may require additional permits or certifications depending on the nature of the parts being shipped.
