For small, well-padded home decor items under parcel size limits, shippers can 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, exporters should use poly sheeting around each boxed or crated item, then add silica gel inside the packaging.

For designer or branded decorative items, confirm if any Trademark documentation or Certificates of origin are required by the destination country.
