Shipping Domestic Appliances from Cai Mep to Teoloyucan via Ocean Freight

Preparing large appliances for freight Requires careful steps. Disconnect water, gas, and power; drain hoses and internal water from washers, dishwashers, and fridges; and fasten doors, cords, and loose shelves. Our team suggests using the original packaging when available, or strong cartons with palletization for protection. Clearly Label units as “Fragile – Appliance” and “Keep Dry” due to moisture sensitivity.

You Can sometimes combine kitchen gadgets with Cookware and bakeware, but only with proper separation. Place heavier cast-iron pieces at the bottom, add a rigid layer, then lighter kitchen gadgets above. Individually protect glass lids, ceramic bakeware, and appliance attachments, and avoid overloading any single carton to keep weight manageable and prevent crushing.

Because Home appliances are heavy and relatively high value, extra insurance makes sense beyond basic carrier liability. We recommend declaring the full replacement value for fridges, ranges, washers, and premium food prep equipment. Verify that your policy covers humidity damage, as many small appliances contain electronics that can fail after contact with water or high humidity.

Store Home appliances in a moisture-controlled area, raised on pallets and away from exterior doors or damp walls. Keep Countertop appliances, kitchenware, and other boxed items off bare concrete floors, and add pallet covers or top sheets if humidity is high. Avoid outdoor staging or open docks during rain, and do not shrink-wrap warm appliances immediately after use, as trapped condensation can damage electronics.

International shipments of Electrical home appliances may be subject to import regulations in the destination country. We recommend that major appliances comply with local voltage, plug type, and certification requirements (such as CE, UKCA, or other regional marks). Include accurate product descriptions and HS codes for food prep equipment on commercial invoices and packing lists to reduce customs delays and potential fines.

When shipping household appliances via ocean freight, it is important to ensure that they are properly packaged to prevent damage during transit. Appliances should be secured in containers that can withstand ocean conditions, and cushioning materials should be used to protect against impacts. Additionally, appliances with sensitive electronic components should be handled with care to avoid moisture exposure.

Regulatory requirements for shipping household appliances from Vietnam to Mexico include compliance with Mexican import regulations, which may require specific certifications and labeling to meet safety and environmental standards. Documentation such as a commercial invoice, packing list, and any required certificates of conformity must be prepared to facilitate customs clearance at both Cai Mep and Teoloyucan.
