Shipping Power Equipment from Callao to Baltimore via Ocean Freight

Shipping very heavy Industrial machinery Requires professional rigging. Use purpose‑built skids with clear lifting points, Engage experienced machinery movers for loading, and choose Flatbed or lowboy trailers rated for the full load. Block and brace the machine to prevent any movement, and photograph its condition before pickup.

Yes, moisture‑sensitive HVAC equipment Should be protected from rain and condensation. Use sealed plastic covers with Desiccant packs inside, cap all duct and cable openings, and Choose Enclosed trailers whenever possible. For ocean freight, evaluate enhanced corrosion protection for long voyages.

Exporting Construction machinery typically Requires a detailed invoice, packing list, transport document, and any Export licenses applicable to your destination. We recommend including serial numbers, model numbers, and precise weights for each unit, especially for Generators. For some destinations, authorities may require certificates of origin, fumigation or ISPM‑15 declarations for wood packaging, and safety or emissions certificates for industrial machines.

High‑value Generators Should be protected by a dedicated policy, as carrier liability is usually limited and may not cover full replacement cost. Insure for total project value, confirm that Loading and unloading are covered, and Keep inspection reports and photos in case you need to file a claim. This is especially important for custom‑built Industrial machinery where lead times and replacement costs are high.

Crated Construction machines Can sometimes be stored outdoors short‑term if packaging is properly sealed and placed on hardstanding, not bare ground. However, moisture‑sensitive items like HVAC equipment and Generators Are better kept under cover or indoors. If outdoor storage is unavoidable, check wraps and tarps regularly, maintain drainage around the site, and limit duration to reduce corrosion and electrical damage.

When shipping industrial machinery and construction equipment via ocean freight, it is important to ensure that all items are securely packed and appropriately labeled to withstand the maritime environment. Additionally, equipment may require disassembly for efficient loading and unloading, and special handling equipment may be necessary at both ports due to the weight and size of the machinery.

The required documentation typically includes a bill of lading, commercial invoice, export declaration, and any necessary permits or certificates specific to the machinery being shipped. Compliance with U.S. Customs and Border Protection regulations is essential, as well as adherence to any import restrictions on industrial equipment.
