When shipping from Da Nang, Vietnam to Istanbul, Turkey, anticipate significant delays due to the Southeast Asia Monsoon Season (May-November) and Western Pacific Typhoon Season (June-November).

Shipping very heavy Industrial machinery demands professional rigging. Use purpose‑built skids with clear lifting points, hire experienced machinery movers for loading, and choose Flatbed or lowboy trailers rated for the full load. Stabilize and strap the machine to prevent any movement, and photograph its condition before pickup.
Yes, moisture‑sensitive HVAC equipment must be protected from rain and condensation. Use sealed plastic covers with drying agents inside, cap all duct and cable openings, and Choose covered transport whenever possible. For ocean freight, evaluate VCI packaging for long voyages.
Exporting Construction machinery typically calls for a detailed invoice, packing list, transport document, and any control permits applicable to your destination. We recommend including serial numbers, model numbers, and precise weights for each unit, especially for power equipment. For some destinations, authorities may require certificates of origin, fumigation or ISPM‑15 declarations for wood packaging, and safety or emissions certificates for HVAC equipment.
High‑value Generators are best 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 rigging are covered, and Keep inspection reports and photos in case you need to file a claim. This is especially important for custom‑built construction machinery where lead times and replacement costs are high.
Crated Construction machines are occasionally stored outdoors short‑term if packaging is properly sealed and placed on hardstanding, not bare ground. However, moisture‑sensitive items like air handling units and Generators are safest under cover or indoors. If outdoor storage is unavoidable, check wraps and tarps regularly, maintain drainage around the site, and plan for timely installation to reduce corrosion and electrical damage.
When shipping industrial machinery and construction equipment via ocean freight from Da Nang to Istanbul, it is crucial to ensure that the equipment is properly secured and packaged to withstand the conditions at sea. Heavy machinery may require specialized crating or containers, and it is important to consider weight distribution and securing points during loading. Additionally, equipment should be cleaned and free of soil to comply with international shipping regulations.
The documentation required for customs when shipping industrial machinery and construction equipment from Da Nang to Istanbul typically includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, export declaration from Vietnam, and import declaration for Turkey. Specific regulatory requirements may also necessitate additional permits or certificates, such as those confirming compliance with safety and environmental standards.
