Shipping Home Accessories from Callao to Atlanta via Ocean Freight

Moving household furniture and Home decor Requires multi-step packing. Exporters should Disassemble removable legs, shelves, and hardware, then Wrap each component separately. Use edge guards on table tops, cabinets, and Mirrors, then place items in Double-walled cartons with Tight internal cushioning. Finally, clearly mark all packages as “Fragile” and indicate the top orientation.

Large or heavy framed decorative items are usually more appropriate for freight services than standard parcel, because freight Allows palletization and Upright handling. For small, well-padded home decor items under parcel size limits, it is possible to use parcel carriers, but You should add Extra cushioning and insure for full value. Oversized wall decor panels Should be crated and shipped on pallets to reduce conveyor and drop risks.

For moisture-sensitive household furniture and decorative items, You should use Sealed inner bags around each boxed or crated item, then add silica gel inside the packaging. In ocean containers, never place pallets directly against steel walls; instead, Leave a small air gap and use Container desiccants hung from lashing points. Choose covered docks so Furniture sets are not exposed to rain during loading.
