Shipping Electronics from Navegantes to Omaha via Ocean Freight

When shipping a TV, pack in an upright TV carton with foam edge and corner protectors, wrap the screen in foam wrap, 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 minimize exposure to rain or damp areas since the internal components are moisture sensitive.

Yes, Audio equipment needs rigid cartons with dense foam or molded inserts that support the chassis, not the knobs or connectors. Pack each amplifier 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 involve a commercial invoice, packing list, and all applicable 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 audio equipment, verify if additional certifications or licenses are needed in the destination country.

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

Because Electronics like high-end audio equipment are high value and fragile, adding cargo insurance that matches their replacement cost is strongly recommended. Verify your carrier’s standard liability limits, state accurate values and serial numbers, and store packing photos and invoices so any claim for damaged home theater systems can be processed efficiently.

Consumer electronics should be properly packaged to prevent damage from moisture and vibration during transit. Additionally, temperature control may be necessary to protect sensitive electronic components.
