Shipping White Goods from Sanshui to Newark via Ocean Freight

Getting 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. Most carriers recommend using the original packaging when available, or strong cartons with palletization for protection. Clearly mark units as “Fragile – Appliance” and “Keep Dry” due to moisture sensitivity.

You can in some cases 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 countertop appliances above. Individually protect glass lids, ceramic bakeware, and appliance attachments, and avoid overloading any single carton to keep weight manageable and prevent crushing.

Because white goods 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 kitchen gadgets contain electronics that can fail after contact with water or high humidity.

Store domestic 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 powered kitchen 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 items are properly packed to withstand potential impacts during transit. Appliances should be secured in their original packaging or appropriate crates to prevent damage. Additionally, appliances must be protected from moisture and temperature fluctuations during the ocean journey.

Required documentation generally includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any necessary certificates of origin or compliance with U.S. regulations. It is essential to ensure that all documentation accurately reflects the nature of the household appliances being shipped to facilitate smooth customs clearance in Newark.
