When shipping from Sanshui, China to Mira Loma, United States, anticipate significant delays during the East Asia rainy season (May-October) and typhoon season (June-November). Build in extra buffer days for port operations and book vessel space well in advance, especially around Golden Week (October 1-7) and Lunar New Year (late-January to mid-February). Plan for potential congestion and longer transit times during peak retail periods (November-December) and the year-end inventory build (September-December). Communicate closely with carriers to manage schedules effectively and mitigate disruptions.

Shipping fresh produce successfully demands a continuous cold chain. Use Insulated packaging with the right amount of gel packs for refrigerated food or dry ice for frozen goods, 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 temperature-controlled freight.
Yes, Frozen food can often be shipped with dry ice by air, but dry ice is regulated as a dangerous good. Airlines have 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. We recommend checking carrier and destination rules in advance and combining dry ice with insulated packaging to keep reefer cargo at temperature while staying within dry‑ice limits.
Standard cargo policies may Exclude coverage for temperature-related loss on fresh food and frozen food. We recommend arranging a policy that specifically covers temperature deviation and spoilage, and declaring the full value of your refrigerated food shipment. Keep packing records and temperature logs; insurers often require proof that adequate insulation was used before honoring claims.
Most Chilled food should stay between 0–4°C, while many Frozen food products must remain at −18°C or colder. Exact ranges depend on the product type and local regulations. Always verify requirements for each item and specify the target range on booking instructions and labels so your Reefer cargo is set correctly.
You can sometimes mix Fresh produce and Frozen food in the same load, but only if your container or vehicle can maintain separate temperature zones. Chilled food typically needs temperatures above freezing, while Frozen goods must stay well below zero. If only one temperature setpoint is available, best practice is separating them into different temperature-controlled shipments to avoid freezing Fresh produce or partially thawing frozen items.
When shipping fresh and frozen food, it is crucial to maintain specific temperature ranges throughout the journey. This includes using refrigerated containers for chilled products and frozen containers for items that need to remain at sub-zero temperatures. Additionally, proper air circulation within the containers is necessary to avoid spoilage.
Shipments of fresh and frozen food must comply with U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations, which include prior notice submission before arrival. Additionally, importers must ensure that all products meet the USDA's standards and any phytosanitary certifications required for agricultural products.
