Shipping Clothing from Long Beach to Minneapolis via Ground Freight

For moisture-sensitive Clothing & apparel, choose an inner plastic sleeve for each unit or bundle, then place items in double-wall boxes. Add silica gel for longer or ocean shipments, and ensure cartons are fully closed and taped to keep out humidity and splashes.

Most Textiles can move in dry vans or regular parcel cartons, as long as they are protected from moisture. For Fabric rolls, our team suggests palletized or racked loading to prevent edge damage, and in humid lanes, adding Container desiccants is advisable.

High-value Fashion products benefit from reduced touchpoints, barcoded labels, and use of cages to avoid snagging. Instruct handlers to keep apparel off the floor, avoid Sharp hooks, and not to Over-stack lightweight Clothing cartons.
