Shipping Garments from Wuhan to Charlotte via Ocean Freight

For moisture-sensitive fashion products, Use an inner plastic sleeve for each unit or bundle, then place items in double-wall boxes. Add Desiccant packs for longer or ocean shipments, and ensure cartons are securely sealed to keep out humidity and splashes.

Most clothing can move in Standard dry containers or regular parcel cartons, as long as they are protected from moisture. For bulk textiles, We recommend palletized or racked loading to prevent edge damage, and in humid lanes, adding Container desiccants is advisable.

High-value designer clothing benefit from Minimal handling, barcoded labels, and use of cages to avoid Soiling. Instruct handlers to keep apparel off the floor, avoid Sharp hooks, and not to crush lightweight fashion cartons.

Yes. Many countries require proper customs coding and clear Fiber content, plus Country of origin on documents for clothing & textiles. Some trade agreements and quota systems still affect certain Textile categories, so review local regulations before exporting large volumes.

Insuring garments is strongly recommended, especially for Branded items or large wholesale orders. Cargo insurance can cover water damage and relies on accurate packing lists 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, the use of breathable packaging materials can help reduce the risk of mold and mildew, which is particularly important given the long ocean journey.

The required documentation for Customs clearance includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any necessary certificates of origin or compliance with U.S. regulations for textiles.
