When shipping from Vitoria, Brazil to Valparaiso, Chile, account for the Brazil wet season (October-March) by building in extra buffer days due to heavy rainfall and potential flooding. During the South Atlantic cyclone risk period (November-April), expect possible diversions and delays, particularly from December to March. Additionally, during the South America fruit export peak (January-May and September-December), secure vessel space well in advance to avoid congestion.

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

Pack each amplifier individually, Wrap cables separately, 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 Require a commercial invoice, packing list, and all applicable export declarations. Include product descriptions, HS codes, serial numbers for high-value devices, and the true transaction value to avoid delays at customs. For certain home theater systems, verify if additional certifications or licenses are needed in the destination country.

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

Confirm your carrier’s standard liability limits, state accurate values and serial numbers, and retain packing photos and invoices so any claim for damaged AV equipment can be processed efficiently.
