Shipping Lightings from Wuhan to Taipei via Ocean Freight

When moving mixed loads of building products such as Lighting, Tools, and bulk fasteners, Separate items by weight and fragility on each pallet. Stack 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. Clearly label pallets with handling instructions like “Fragile lighting” or “Heavy tools” so carriers will handle them appropriately.

For lamps and lighting components, Use Double-wall cartons with internal dividers or foam inserts so glass and lenses never contact each other. We recommend individually protecting each unit 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 building supplies such as cement-based goods, metal fasteners, and electrical Lighting Should be covered with Plastic sheeting and, where feasible, supplemented by desiccant packs. Select 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 hand tools and branded fasteners Often justify All-risk cargo insurance, especially when combined with fragile LED lights. We recommend covering shipments at full replacement value and maintaining 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 light fixtures ship as general building products, but You should Declare them with the correct HS codes and electrical specifications on your documentation. If battery-powered tools with lithium batteries are included, Additional dangerous goods rules may apply, requiring hazmat markings, packing instructions, and sometimes carrier pre-approval. Check with your carrier or freight forwarder in advance to confirm any restrictions for combined loads of electrical Lighting and powered power tools.

Required documentation includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any relevant import/export permits. Additionally, customs clearance documentation must comply with Taiwan's regulations for building materials.

Seasonal considerations include the impact of typhoon season, which typically runs from June to October, potentially affecting shipping conditions and port operations. It is advisable to monitor weather patterns during this period.
