Shipping Led Lights from New York to Paranagua via Ocean Freight

When Shipping mixed loads of construction goods such as lamps, Tools, and bulk Hardware, clearly 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 add corner boards, top sheets, and stretch wrap to stabilize the load. Label pallets with handling instructions like “Fragile lighting” or “Heavy tools” so carriers do handle them appropriately.

For Lighting and light fittings, pack in Double-wall cartons with internal dividers or foam inserts so glass and lenses Do not touch each other. Our team 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 hardware on the same pallet.

Moisture-sensitive Construction materials such as cement-based goods, metal fasteners, and electrical LED lights Should be Wrapped with poly wrap and, where feasible, paired with 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, look at container liners or dehumidifier units for high-humidity routes.

High-value Tools and branded fasteners usually require All-risk cargo insurance, especially when combined with fragile Lighting. Our specialists recommend obtaining coverage for shipments at full replacement value and retaining serial numbers or SKU lists for premium Power tools. This documentation improves claim outcomes if cartons are lost, pilfered, or water-damaged.

Most standard electrical Lighting ship as general building products, but it is important to Declare them with the correct HS codes and electrical specifications on your documentation. If Power tools with lithium batteries are included, you may trigger dangerous goods regulations, requiring UN-compliant labels, 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 Lighting and powered power tools.
