Shipping Home Accessories from Kaohsiung to Savannah via Ocean Freight

Moving furniture sets and home accessories demands careful preparation. You should knock down removable legs, shelves, and hardware, then protect each component separately. Use foam corners on table tops, cabinets, and wall decor panels, then place items in Double-walled cartons with snug internal cushioning. Finally, Label all packages as “Fragile” and indicate the top 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, You can use parcel carriers, but exporters should add double-boxing and insure for full value. Oversized glass furnishings are best 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, Avoid pallets directly against steel walls; instead, create a small air gap and use humidity absorbers hung from lashing points. Choose sheltered loading bays so home decor cartons 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. 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 decorative items, confirm if any IP documentation or origin statements 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. We recommend purchasing supplemental freight insurance for high-value or fragile shipments, and confirming that the policy protects against breakage and moisture damage. This better ensures you can claim the full replacement cost if items are damaged in transit.
