Shipping Home Decorations from Salalah to Shenzhen via Ocean Freight

Shipping furniture sets and decorative items demands Layered protection. You should knock down removable legs, shelves, and hardware, then protect each component separately. Use edge guards on table tops, cabinets, and glass decorative items, then place items in custom crates with Tight internal cushioning. Finally, Label all packages as “Glass – Do Not Stack” and indicate the Upright orientation.

Large or heavy Mirrors are usually safer with freight services than standard parcel, because freight permits palletization and vertical handling. For small, well-padded Wall decor under parcel size limits, You can use parcel carriers, but exporters should add double-boxing and insure for full value. Oversized wall decor panels are best crated and shipped on pallets to reduce conveyor and drop risks.

For moisture-sensitive Furniture and home accessories, shippers should use plastic liners around each boxed or crated item, then add Desiccant packs 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 covered docks so decorative item boxes are not exposed to rain during loading.

International shipments of high-value Furniture sets and decorative items typically need a detailed invoice, packing list, and HS codes 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 brand documentation or COO documents are required by the destination country.

Standard carrier liability for Furniture and decorative items is usually based on weight, which often understates the actual value of designer pieces, wall decor, or premium Furniture sets. We recommend purchasing supplemental freight insurance for high-value or fragile shipments, and confirming that the policy protects against breakage and moisture damage. This helps guarantee you can be compensated for the full replacement cost if items are damaged in transit.

Furniture & Home Décor items should be securely packaged to prevent damage during ocean transport. It is essential to use appropriate materials, such as bubble wrap and sturdy boxes, and to ensure that larger items are disassembled if necessary for easier handling. Special care should be taken to protect delicate home decor items.

The required documentation typically includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any certificates of origin or conformity as needed. It's important to ensure all documentation is accurate and complete to facilitate smooth customs clearance in both Oman and China.
