Shipping Home Decorations from Kaohsiung to Montreal via Ocean Freight

Moving furniture sets and home accessories demands careful preparation. Shippers should Disassemble removable legs, shelves, and hardware, then Wrap each component separately. Use Corner protectors on table tops, cabinets, and Mirrors, then place items in reinforced boxes with secure internal cushioning. Finally, clearly mark all packages as “Handle with Care” and indicate the Upright orientation.

Large or heavy framed decorative items are usually safer with freight services than standard parcel, because freight supports palletization and vertical handling. For small, well-padded decorative items under parcel size limits, shippers can use parcel carriers, but You should add Extra cushioning 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 accessories, exporters should use plastic liners around each boxed or crated item, then add moisture absorbers inside the packaging. In ocean containers, do not allow pallets directly against steel walls; instead, Leave a small air gap and use Container desiccants 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 decorative items typically call for a detailed invoice, packing list, and customs classification 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 Furnishings, Check if any Trademark documentation or Certificates of origin 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, wall decor, or premium home decoration items. Most brokers recommend purchasing Separate cargo insurance for high-value or fragile shipments, and confirming that the policy Covers breakage and moisture damage. This Helps ensure you can Recover the full replacement cost if items are damaged in transit.

Furniture and home décor items must be securely packaged to withstand ocean transport. Items should be disassembled when possible, and protective materials should be used to prevent damage from moisture and movement during transit.
