Shipping Furniture & Home Décor from Shunde to Taipei via Ocean Freight

Shipping furniture sets and Home decor demands Layered protection. Shippers should take apart removable legs, shelves, and hardware, then Wrap each component separately. Use edge guards on table tops, cabinets, and Mirrors, then place items in Double-walled cartons with Tight internal cushioning. Finally, clearly mark all packages as “Glass – Do Not Stack” and indicate the top orientation.

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

For moisture-sensitive Furniture and home accessories, You should use plastic liners around each boxed or crated item, then add Desiccant packs inside the packaging.

Choose covered docks so Furniture sets are not exposed to rain during loading.
