Shipping Led Lights from Salvador to Denver via Ocean Freight

When transporting mixed loads of building products such as Lighting, power tools, and bulk fasteners, clearly separate items by weight and fragility on each pallet. Place heavy, dense Building materials 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 will handle them appropriately.

For light fixtures and lighting components, Use heavy-duty cartons with internal dividers or foam inserts so glass and lenses never contact each other. Our team recommends Wrapping each fixture in bubble wrap or foam sleeves, then Placing them in snug compartments. Mark cartons as “Fragile – Lighting” and avoid stacking them under heavy Construction materials on the same pallet.

Moisture-sensitive building products such as cement-based goods, metal fasteners, and electrical Lighting need to be covered with poly wrap and, where feasible, Combined with desiccant packs. Use 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 power tools and branded fasteners Often justify additional freight insurance, especially when combined with fragile LED lights. Our specialists recommend Insuring shipments at full replacement value and Keeping serial numbers or SKU lists for premium Power tools. This documentation Supports claim outcomes if cartons are lost, pilfered, or water-damaged.

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