Shipping Audio Equipment from Montreal to Houston via Ocean Freight

When shipping a TV, Use an upright TV carton with foam edge and corner protectors, wrap the screen in Soft foam, and brace all voids so the unit cannot move. Ship 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.

Yes, Audio equipment Should use rigid cartons with dense foam or molded inserts that support the chassis, not the knobs or connectors. Pack each Receiver individually, bundle accessories in separate bags, and add desiccant packs for moisture control. For multiple units, ship on pallets with corner posts and stretch wrap to keep the load stable.

International shipments of Electronics typically Require a commercial invoice, packing list, and Any needed export declarations. Clearly state product descriptions, HS codes, serial numbers for high-value devices, and the true transaction value to ensure smooth clearance. For certain AV equipment, verify if additional certifications or licenses are needed in the destination country.

For moisture-sensitive Electronics, Use moisture-barrier bags or sealed poly bags around each unit, Add desiccant sachets inside the inner packaging, and close cartons tightly. On pallets of televisions, wrap with stretch film and, where possible, Add pallet covers to shield against condensation or light rain during handling.

Verify your carrier’s standard liability limits, state accurate values and serial numbers, and store packing photos and invoices so any claim for damaged Gadgets can be processed efficiently.
