Shipping Backup Generators from Lagos to Xiaolan via Ocean Freight

Shipping very heavy factory equipment demands professional rigging. Use purpose‑built skids with clear lifting points, work with 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 Document its condition before pickup.

Yes, moisture‑sensitive industrial fans must be protected from rain and condensation. Use sealed plastic covers with humidity absorbers inside, cap all duct and cable openings, and Choose covered transport whenever possible. For ocean freight, Consider Dehumidified or ventilated containers for long voyages.

Exporting industrial machinery typically calls for a detailed invoice, packing list, transport document, and any regulatory approvals applicable to your destination. We recommend including serial numbers, model numbers, and precise weights for each unit, especially for power equipment. For some destinations, You may also need certificates of origin, fumigation or ISPM‑15 declarations for wood packaging, and safety or emissions certificates for Construction machines.

High‑value power equipment 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 water damage 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 heavy equipment are occasionally stored outdoors short‑term if packaging is properly sealed and placed on hardstanding, not bare ground. However, moisture‑sensitive items like industrial fans and Generators are safest under cover or indoors. If outdoor storage is unavoidable, Inspect wraps and tarps regularly, maintain drainage around the site, and Avoid long‑term exposure to reduce corrosion and electrical damage.
