Shipping Led Lights from Teoloyucan to Istanbul via Ocean Freight

When Shipping mixed loads of building products such as lamps, power 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 lighting components, pack in heavy-duty cartons with internal dividers or foam inserts so glass and lenses Do not touch each other.

For export, look at container liners or dehumidifier units for high-humidity routes.

High-value Tools and branded fasteners usually require additional freight 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 properly 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.
