Shipping Vehicle Parts from Tanjung Pelepas to Genoa via Ocean Freight

For moisture-sensitive automotive parts, select inner poly bags with desiccant around each component, then place them in Sturdy cartons with sufficient cushioning. Seal all seams with Water-resistant tape and clearly mark cartons “Protect from Moisture”. For export or long-duration transit, assess adding moisture absorbers inside master cartons and, if needed, inside the shipping container.

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

Fluid-filled automotive parts such as fuel system components, shock absorbers, or oil coolers often require dangerous goods documentation, depending on the type and quantity of fluid. You should Check whether the product is classified as dangerous goods under IMDG and IATA regulations and prepare 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 auto components such as engines, transmissions, ECUs, and safety modules should be shipped with declared value coverage. Carrier default liability Is often limited and may not cover the full replacement cost of specialized Automotive parts. Most brokers 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 will be processed efficiently.

To reduce damage in mixed auto parts pallet loads, position the heaviest metal components at the bottom, with lighter boxes and car tires above. Use Corner boards, Stretch wrap plus strapping to stabilize the load and prevent shifting. Keep moisture-sensitive auto components toward the center of the pallet, away from potential leaks or condensation on trailer walls, and visibly tag any fragile or orientation-sensitive cartons so handlers can respect correct handling procedures.

Required documentation includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any necessary certificates of origin or compliance specific to automotive parts for customs clearance in both Malaysia and Italy.

Seasonal considerations include potential monsoon weather in Malaysia from May to October, which may affect loading operations at Tanjung Pelepas, and winter weather conditions in the Mediterranean during December to February, which can impact port operations in Genoa.
