Shipping Led Lights from Jakarta to Ningbo via Ocean Freight

When moving mixed loads of Construction materials such as lamps, hand tools, and bulk Hardware, Separate items by weight and fragility on each pallet. Stack heavy, dense construction goods at the bottom, with lighter cartons of LED lights on top, and Use corner boards, top sheets, and stretch wrap to stabilize the load. Clearly label pallets with handling instructions like “Fragile lighting” or “Heavy tools” so carriers do handle them appropriately.

For lamps and LED lights, pack in reinforced boxes with internal dividers or foam inserts so glass and lenses Do not touch each other. We recommend individually protecting each unit in bubble wrap or foam sleeves, then positioning them in snug compartments. Mark cartons as “Fragile – Lighting” and avoid stacking them under heavy Construction materials on the same pallet.

Moisture-sensitive building supplies such as cement-based goods, metal Hardware, and electrical LED lights must be Wrapped with Plastic sheeting and, where feasible, supplemented by desiccant packs. Book enclosed equipment—like dry vans or sealed ocean containers—rather than open trucks, and Avoid long outdoor dwell times at terminals. For export, Consider container liners or dehumidifier units for high-humidity routes.

High-value hand tools and branded Hardware usually require enhanced cargo coverage, especially when combined with fragile Lighting. We recommend covering shipments at full replacement value and retaining serial numbers or SKU lists for premium Power tools. This documentation Supports claim outcomes if cartons are lost, pilfered, or water-damaged.

Most standard electrical light fixtures ship as general Construction goods, but it is important to accurately declare them with the correct HS codes and electrical specifications on your documentation.

Coordinate with your carrier or freight forwarder in advance to confirm any restrictions for combined loads of electrical Lighting and powered Tools.

The documentation typically required includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any necessary export permits from Indonesia. Additionally, import permits may be required by Chinese customs for specific building materials.
