Shipping Tvs from Durban to Portland via Ocean Freight

When shipping a television, Use an upright TV carton with foam edge and corner protectors, wrap the screen in non-abrasive padding, and Fill all voids so the unit cannot move. Transport the TV standing upright, clearly mark the box with “This Side Up” and “Fragile – Electronics,” and Avoid exposure to rain or damp areas since the internal components are moisture sensitive.

On pallets of audio equipment, wrap with stretch film and, where possible, Add pallet covers to shield against condensation or light rain during handling.
