Shipping Furniture Sets from Genoa to Mexico City via Ocean Freight

Shipping Furniture and home accessories necessitates Layered protection. You should take apart removable legs, shelves, and hardware, then cushion each component separately. Use edge guards on table tops, cabinets, and glass decorative items, then place items in reinforced boxes with Tight internal cushioning. Finally, conspicuously label all packages as “Handle with Care” and indicate the Upright orientation.

Large or heavy Mirrors are usually Better suited to 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 shippers should add reinforced packaging and insure for full value. Oversized wall decor panels are best crated and shipped on pallets to reduce conveyor and drop risks.

For moisture-sensitive Furniture and Home decor, 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, maintain a small air gap and use dry packs hung from lashing points. Choose covered docks so decorative item boxes are not exposed to rain during loading.

International shipments of high-value Furniture sets and Home decor 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 home decor, verify if any brand documentation or COO documents are required by the destination country.

Standard carrier liability for Furniture and Home decor 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 all-risk coverage for high-value or fragile shipments, and confirming that the policy includes breakage and moisture damage. This helps guarantee you can be compensated for the full replacement cost if items are damaged in transit.
