When planning shipments from Anagni to Genoa, expect potential delays due to Mediterranean winter storms (November-March) and account for reduced port staffing during the Western New Year holiday period (December 20-January 5). Build in additional buffer days for transit times and avoid tight just-in-time deliveries, especially during peak congestion periods (December-February). Negotiate flexible berthing windows and monitor weather forecasts closely to adjust ETAs as necessary. Plan for increased demand and potential capacity shortages leading up to the European summer export peak (April-June).

Moving perishable goods successfully Requires a continuous cold chain. Use thermal containers with the right amount of gel packs for Chilled food or dry ice for Frozen food, pre‑chill products before packing, and choose a expedited service. Clearly mark boxes as “Perishable” and specify the required temperature so carriers handle them as Reefer cargo.
Yes, frozen goods can in many cases be shipped with dry ice by air, but dry ice is regulated as a dangerous good. Airlines Set limits on how much dry ice is allowed per package and per shipment, and labels must show the net weight of dry ice and UN1845 markings. Our compliance team recommends checking carrier and destination rules in advance and combining dry ice with insulated packaging to keep Frozen food at temperature while staying within dry‑ice limits.
Standard cargo policies may limit coverage for temperature-related loss on chilled food and Frozen goods. Insurance specialists generally recommend arranging a policy that specifically covers temperature deviation and spoilage, and declaring the full value of your Reefer cargo. Keep packing records and temperature logs; insurers often require proof that adequate insulation was used before honoring claims.
Most refrigerated food should stay between 0–4°C, while many frozen goods products must remain at −18°C or colder. Exact ranges depend on the product type and local regulations. Always Confirm requirements for each item and specify the target range on booking instructions and labels so your temperature-controlled shipment is set correctly.
You can sometimes mix fresh food and frozen goods in the same load, but only if your container or vehicle can maintain separate temperature zones. Fresh produce typically needs temperatures above freezing, while frozen food must stay well below zero. If only one temperature setpoint is available, most logistics providers recommend separating them into different Reefer cargo shipments to avoid freezing perishable goods or partially thawing frozen items.
Fresh and frozen food requires temperature-controlled containers to maintain appropriate conditions during the ocean freight journey. Proper insulation and refrigeration systems must be utilized to ensure product quality is preserved throughout the trip.
Regulatory requirements include compliance with food safety standards set by Italian authorities, ensuring that all fresh and frozen food products meet hygiene and quality regulations. Proper documentation, including health certificates and customs declarations, must be prepared for inspection at both Anagni and Genoa.
