Shipping Fashions from New York to Savannah via Ocean Freight

For moisture-sensitive Clothing & apparel, choose an inner sealed liner for each unit or bundle, then place items in quality shipping boxes. Add Desiccant packs 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 shielded from water. For bulk textiles, We recommend palletized or racked loading to prevent edge damage, and in humid lanes, adding moisture-control liners is advisable.

High-value Fashion products benefit from reduced touchpoints, sealed packaging, and use of roll containers to avoid Soiling. Instruct handlers to keep apparel off the floor, avoid rough surfaces, and not to Over-stack lightweight Clothing cartons.

Yes. Many countries require Correct HS codes and clear material composition, plus manufacturing origin on documents for garments. Some trade agreements and quota systems still affect certain Textile categories, so check with your customs agent before exporting large volumes.

Insuring Clothing & apparel is strongly recommended, especially for designer items or large wholesale orders. Cargo insurance can cover total loss and relies on accurate SKU manifests to validate claims, so always keep detailed records of what Textiles were shipped and their declared value.

When shipping Clothing & Textiles, it is essential to ensure that the products are properly packed to prevent damage from moisture and humidity during transit. Additionally, care should be taken to avoid crushing or wrinkling the garments, which may require the use of appropriate packaging materials such as padded cartons or moisture-resistant bags.

The documentation required typically includes a Bill of Lading, a commercial invoice detailing the contents and value of the shipment, and any necessary customs declarations. Since both New York and Savannah are within the United States, there are generally no additional import/export permits required, but it's important to ensure compliance with any specific state regulations.
