Shipping Furnishings from Haiphong to Manaus via Ocean Freight

Shipping household furniture and decorative items necessitates multi-step packing. Shippers should take apart removable legs, shelves, and hardware, then protect each component separately. Use edge guards on table tops, cabinets, and wall decor panels, then place items in Double-walled cartons with secure internal cushioning. Finally, conspicuously label all packages as “Glass – Do Not Stack” and indicate the this side up orientation.

Large or heavy Mirrors are usually more appropriate for freight services than standard parcel, because freight permits palletization and stable handling. For small, well-padded home decor items under parcel size limits, shippers can use parcel carriers, but shippers should add double-boxing 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 decorative items, shippers should use poly sheeting around each boxed or crated item, then add silica gel inside the packaging. In ocean containers, do not allow pallets directly against steel walls; instead, maintain a small air gap and use humidity absorbers hung from lashing points. Choose covered docks so home decor cartons are not exposed to rain during loading.

International shipments of high-value Furniture sets and home accessories typically need a full commercial invoice, packing list, and tariff codes for each product type. Shippers 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, confirm if any brand documentation or origin statements are required by the destination country.

Standard carrier liability for Furniture and home accessories is usually based on weight, which often understates the actual value of designer pieces, artistic decorative items, or premium home furnishings. Most brokers recommend purchasing all-risk coverage for high-value or fragile shipments, and confirming that the policy protects against breakage and moisture damage. This helps guarantee you can claim the full replacement cost if items are damaged in transit.

Shipping Furniture & Home Décor from Haiphong to Manaus requires specific documentation, including a Bill of Lading, commercial invoice, packing list, and any necessary customs declarations.
