Shipping Furnishings from Nansha to Mexico City via Ocean Freight

Moving furniture sets and home accessories Requires multi-step packing. Shippers should take apart removable legs, shelves, and hardware, then cushion each component separately. Use Corner protectors on table tops, cabinets, and glass decorative items, then place items in custom crates with snug internal cushioning. Finally, clearly mark all packages as “Handle with Care” and indicate the this side up orientation.

Large or heavy framed decorative items are usually safer with freight services than standard parcel, because freight supports palletization and Upright handling. For small, well-padded home decor items under parcel size limits, shippers can use parcel carriers, but shippers should add reinforced packaging and insure for full value. Oversized Mirrors are best crated and shipped on pallets to reduce conveyor and drop risks.

For moisture-sensitive household furniture and home accessories, exporters should use Sealed inner bags around each boxed or crated item, then add silica gel inside the packaging. In ocean containers, do not allow pallets directly against steel walls; instead, maintain a small air gap and use dry packs hung from lashing points. Choose Dry, indoor loading areas so decorative item boxes are not exposed to rain during loading.

International shipments of high-value household furniture and decorative items typically call for a Commercial invoice, packing list, and tariff codes 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 home decor, verify if any Trademark documentation or COO documents 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, Mirrors, or premium home furnishings. Most brokers recommend purchasing all-risk coverage for high-value or fragile shipments, and confirming that the policy includes breakage and moisture damage. This Helps ensure you can be compensated for the full replacement cost if items are damaged in transit.

When shipping Furniture & Home Décor, it is important to ensure that items are properly packaged and secured to prevent damage during transit. Fragile items should be cushioned, and larger furniture pieces may require disassembly for efficient loading and unloading.

The required documentation includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any specific certificates related to the materials used in the furniture. Additionally, import permits may be necessary depending on the type of home décor items being shipped.
