Shipping Fasteners from Shanghai to Shekou via Ocean Freight

When moving mixed loads of Construction materials such as light fixtures, hand tools, and bulk Hardware, properly separate items by weight and fragility on each pallet. Load heavy, dense Building materials at the bottom, with lighter cartons of tools 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, choose reinforced boxes 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 Placing them in snug compartments. Prominently 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 must be protected with moisture-barrier film and, where feasible, paired with desiccant packs. Use 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 hand tools and branded Hardware typically warrant enhanced cargo coverage, especially when combined with fragile light fixtures. DNA recommends obtaining coverage for shipments at full replacement value and Keeping 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 light fixtures ship as general Construction goods, but you must 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 UN-compliant labels, packing instructions, and sometimes carrier pre-approval. Consult your carrier or freight forwarder in advance to confirm any restrictions for combined loads of electrical LED lights and powered Tools.
