Large or heavy glass wall decor are usually more appropriate for freight services than standard parcel, because freight permits palletization and Upright handling. For small, well-padded decorative items under parcel size limits, You can use parcel carriers, but You should add double-boxing and insure for full value. Oversized Mirrors are best crated and shipped on pallets to reduce conveyor and drop risks.

For moisture-sensitive furnishings and decorative items, shippers should use Sealed inner bags around each boxed or crated item, then add moisture absorbers inside the packaging. In ocean containers, Avoid pallets directly against steel walls; instead, Leave a small air gap and use humidity absorbers hung from lashing points.

International shipments of high-value furnishings and home accessories typically need a Commercial invoice, packing list, and customs classification for each product type.

For designer or branded Furnishings, confirm if any Trademark documentation or COO documents are required by the destination country.
