Shipping Fasteners from Nansha to Montreal via Ocean Freight

When Shipping mixed loads of construction goods such as lamps, hand tools, and bulk fasteners, properly separate items by weight and fragility on each pallet. Place heavy, dense construction goods at the bottom, with lighter cartons of tools 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 will handle them appropriately.

For Lighting and light fittings, pack in reinforced boxes with internal dividers or foam inserts so glass and lenses do not contact each other. DNA recommends Wrapping each fixture in bubble wrap or foam sleeves, then positioning them in snug compartments. Prominently mark cartons as “Fragile – Lighting” and avoid stacking them under heavy Construction materials on the same pallet.

Moisture-sensitive Construction materials such as cement-based goods, metal fasteners, and electrical LED lights must be protected with moisture-barrier film and, where feasible, Combined with desiccant packs. Book enclosed equipment—like dry vans or sealed ocean containers—rather than open trucks, and minimize long outdoor dwell times at terminals. For export, Consider container liners or dehumidifier units for high-humidity routes.

High-value Tools and branded fasteners usually require enhanced cargo coverage, especially when combined with fragile light fixtures. DNA recommends Insuring shipments at full replacement value and retaining serial numbers or SKU lists for premium hand tools. This documentation Supports claim outcomes if cartons are lost, pilfered, or water-damaged.

Most standard electrical Lighting ship as general building products, but it is important to accurately 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 Special labeling, packing instructions, and sometimes carrier pre-approval. Coordinate with your carrier or freight forwarder in advance to confirm any restrictions for combined loads of electrical LED lights and powered Tools.

Additionally, heavy or bulky items may require special handling equipment at both the Nansha and Montreal ports to facilitate loading and unloading.
