Shipping Household Furniture from Incheon to Buenos Aires via Ocean Freight

Shipping household furniture and home accessories Requires careful preparation. You should Disassemble removable legs, shelves, and hardware, then Wrap each component separately. Use edge guards on table tops, cabinets, and glass decorative items, then place items in reinforced boxes 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 supports palletization and Upright handling. For small, well-padded decorative items under parcel size limits, You can use parcel carriers, but You should add Extra cushioning 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, exporters 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 Container desiccants 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 accessories typically call for a Commercial invoice, packing list, and customs classification 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 Furnishings, Check if any brand documentation or COO documents are required by the destination country.

Standard carrier liability for Furniture and home accessories is usually based on weight, which often is lower than the actual value of designer pieces, Mirrors, or premium home decoration items. We recommend purchasing Separate cargo insurance for high-value or fragile shipments, and confirming that the policy Covers breakage and moisture damage. This helps guarantee you can be compensated for the full replacement cost if items are damaged in transit.
