Shipping Home Decorations from Itapoa to Manaus via Ocean Freight

Moving Furniture and Home decor Requires Layered protection. Exporters should knock down removable legs, shelves, and hardware, then protect each component separately. Use Corner protectors on table tops, cabinets, and Mirrors, then place items in custom crates with Tight internal cushioning. Finally, conspicuously label all packages as “Handle with Care” and indicate the this side up orientation.

Large or heavy framed decorative items are usually Better suited to freight services than standard parcel, because freight Allows palletization and Upright handling. For small, well-padded Wall decor under parcel size limits, it is possible to use parcel carriers, but exporters should add double-boxing and insure for full value. Oversized Mirrors Should be crated and shipped on pallets to reduce conveyor and drop risks.

For moisture-sensitive household furniture and Home decor, You should use Sealed inner bags around each boxed or crated item, then add Desiccant packs inside the packaging. In ocean containers, never place 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 Furniture sets are not exposed to rain during loading.

International shipments of high-value household furniture and Home decor typically Require a Commercial invoice, packing list, and HS codes for each product type. Exporters 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 Certificates of origin are required by the destination country.

Standard carrier liability for furnishings and Home decor is usually based on weight, which often Does not reflect the actual value of designer pieces, Mirrors, or premium Furniture sets. Insurance providers typically 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 Recover the full replacement cost if items are damaged in transit.
