Shipping Fasteners from Zhanjiang to Xiamen via Ocean Freight

When transporting 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 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 do handle them appropriately.

For light fixtures and light fittings, pack in Double-wall cartons with internal dividers or foam inserts so glass and lenses do not contact each other. DNA recommends Wrapping each fixture 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 products such as cement-based goods, metal fasteners, and electrical LED lights Should be protected with moisture-barrier film and, where feasible, Combined with 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.

Check with your carrier or freight forwarder in advance to confirm any restrictions for combined loads of electrical Lighting and powered power tools.
