When shipping from Antwerp to Genoa, anticipate delays due to North European winter storms (November-March). Build in additional buffer days for port congestion and pilotage suspensions. Secure alternative ports of refuge to mitigate last-minute port closures. During the peak holiday season (December), extend lead times to account for staffing shortages. Coordinate closely with carriers for updated ETAs and adjust plans as necessary to ensure timely deliveries.

When shipping a TV, choose an upright TV carton with foam edge and corner protectors, wrap the screen in foam wrap, and block all voids so the unit cannot move. Transport the TV standing upright, label the box with “This Side Up” and “Fragile – Electronics,” and prevent exposure to rain or damp areas since the internal components are moisture sensitive.
Yes, Audio equipment requires rigid cartons with dense foam or molded inserts that support the chassis, not the knobs or connectors. Pack each amplifier individually, bag all cables, and include desiccant packs for moisture control. For multiple units, place on pallets with corner posts and stretch wrap to keep the load stable.
International shipments of Electronics typically need a commercial invoice, packing list, and all applicable export declarations. List product descriptions, HS codes, serial numbers for high-value TVs, and the true transaction value to avoid delays at customs. For certain home theater systems, verify if additional certifications or licenses are needed in the destination country.
For moisture-sensitive Electronics, select moisture-barrier bags or sealed poly bags around each unit, include desiccant sachets inside the inner packaging, and tape cartons tightly. On pallets of audio equipment, use stretch film and, where possible, use pallet covers to shield against condensation or light rain during handling.
Because Electronics like televisions are high value and fragile, adding cargo insurance that matches their replacement cost is strongly recommended. Check your carrier’s standard liability limits, list accurate values and serial numbers, and retain packing photos and invoices so any claim for damaged AV equipment can be processed efficiently.
Consumer electronics require careful handling to prevent damage during transit. This includes ensuring that items are securely packaged with appropriate cushioning materials, avoiding exposure to moisture and extreme temperatures, and adhering to specific loading procedures to minimize movement during transport.
Shipping consumer electronics from Antwerp to Genoa requires a commercial invoice, packing list, and any relevant customs declarations.
