Shipping Electronic Devices from Penang to Omaha via Ocean Freight

When shipping a flat-screen display, Use an upright TV carton with foam edge and corner protectors, wrap the screen in non-abrasive padding, 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 Electronics are moisture sensitive.

Yes, AV equipment Should use rigid cartons with dense foam or molded inserts that support the chassis, not the knobs or connectors. Pack each audio device 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 consumer tech typically Require a commercial invoice, packing list, and relevant 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, Check if additional certifications or licenses are needed in the destination country.

On pallets of televisions, use stretch film and, where possible, Add pallet covers to shield against condensation or light rain during handling.

Because consumer tech like TVs are high value and fragile, obtaining 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.
