Shipping Av Equipment from Memphis to Colon via Ocean Freight

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. Ship the TV standing upright, label the box with “This Side Up” and “Fragile – Electronics,” and Avoid 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 add 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 devices, and the true transaction value to avoid delays at customs. For certain AV equipment, 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 televisions, use stretch film and, where possible, Add 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, state accurate values and serial numbers, and retain packing photos and invoices so any claim for damaged Gadgets can be processed efficiently.

When shipping consumer electronics, it is important to ensure that products are properly packaged to prevent damage during transit.
