Shipping Furniture Sets from Callao to Denver via Ocean Freight

Moving furniture sets and home accessories necessitates Layered protection. You should knock down removable legs, shelves, and hardware, then protect each component separately. Use Corner protectors on table tops, cabinets, and glass decorative items, then place items in custom crates with secure internal cushioning. Finally, Label all packages as “Handle with Care” and indicate the top orientation.

Large or heavy framed decorative items are usually safer with freight services than standard parcel, because freight supports palletization and stable handling. For small, well-padded Wall decor under parcel size limits, You can use parcel carriers, but exporters 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 household furniture and home accessories, exporters should use poly sheeting around each boxed or crated item, then add Desiccant packs inside the packaging. In ocean containers, Avoid pallets directly against steel walls; instead, create a small air gap and use humidity absorbers hung from lashing points. Choose Dry, indoor loading areas so decorative item boxes are not exposed to rain during loading.

International shipments of high-value household furniture and decorative items typically call for a full commercial invoice, packing list, and HS codes for each product type. You should clearly describe items (for example, “wooden furniture,” “glass mirrors,” “metal wall decor”) and state materials to avoid customs delays. For designer or branded decorative items, confirm if any Trademark documentation or COO documents are required by the destination country.

Standard carrier liability for furnishings and decorative items is usually based on weight, which often is lower than the actual value of designer pieces, artistic decorative items, or premium Furniture sets. We recommend purchasing supplemental freight insurance for high-value or fragile shipments, and confirming that the policy protects against breakage and moisture damage. This Helps ensure you can be compensated for the full replacement cost if items are damaged in transit.

Furniture and home décor items should be securely packaged to withstand ocean transit, including using protective materials to prevent damage from moisture and movement. Additionally, oversized or heavy items may require special handling and securing in the shipping container.

The required documentation includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any necessary certificates for compliance with U.S. regulations, such as import permits for specific materials used in furniture or décor items.
