Shipping Lamps from Xiamen to Taipei via Ocean Freight

When moving mixed loads of construction goods such as lamps, Tools, and bulk Hardware, properly separate items by weight and fragility on each pallet. Place heavy, dense Building materials at the bottom, with lighter cartons of light fixtures on top, and add 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 light fittings, pack in Double-wall cartons with internal dividers or foam inserts so glass and lenses Do not touch each other. DNA recommends Wrapping each fixture in bubble wrap or foam sleeves, then Placing them in snug compartments. Clearly 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 LED lights Should be Wrapped with moisture-barrier film and, where feasible, Combined with desiccant packs. Use enclosed equipment—like dry vans or sealed ocean containers—rather than open trucks, and try to 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 usually require All-risk cargo insurance, especially when combined with fragile Lighting. DNA recommends Insuring shipments at full replacement value and Keeping serial numbers or SKU lists for premium hand 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 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, DG regulations may be involved, requiring Special labeling, 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 power tools.
