Shipping Led Lights from Mombasa to Port Klang via Ocean Freight

When moving mixed loads of Construction materials such as Lighting, Tools, and bulk fasteners, properly separate items by weight and fragility on each pallet. Load 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. Prominently label pallets with handling instructions like “Fragile lighting” or “Heavy tools” so carriers Can handle them appropriately.

For lamps and LED lights, Use Double-wall cartons with internal dividers or foam inserts so glass and lenses do not contact each other. DNA recommends individually wrapping each item 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 Lighting Should be protected with moisture-barrier film and, where feasible, paired with desiccant packs. Select 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 Often justify All-risk cargo insurance, especially when combined with fragile light fixtures. DNA recommends obtaining coverage for shipments at full replacement value and maintaining 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 You should Declare them with the correct HS codes and electrical specifications on your documentation. If corded tools with lithium batteries are included, DG regulations may be involved, requiring UN-compliant labels, packing instructions, and sometimes carrier pre-approval. Check with your carrier or freight forwarder in advance to confirm any restrictions for combined loads of electrical Lighting and powered Tools.

When shipping Building & Construction Materials, ensure that cargo is properly secured to prevent damage during transit. Additionally, consider the weight and dimensions of the materials to comply with shipping regulations and container load limits.
