Shipping Air Handling Units from Mombasa to Shenzhen via Ocean Freight

Shipping very heavy Industrial machinery Requires careful planning. Use purpose‑built skids with clear lifting points, Engage experienced machinery movers for loading, and choose suitable heavy‑haul trailers rated for the full load. Secure and chock the machine to prevent any movement, and Document its condition before pickup.

Yes, moisture‑sensitive HVAC equipment Should be shielded from moisture. Use sealed plastic covers with Desiccant packs inside, cap all duct and cable openings, and book dry containers whenever possible. For ocean freight, Consider enhanced corrosion protection for long voyages.

Exporting Construction machinery typically Requires a customs invoice, packing list, transport document, and any Export licenses applicable to your destination. Customs brokers typically recommend including serial numbers, model numbers, and precise weights for each unit, especially for backup generators. For some destinations, You may also need 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 stand‑alone coverage, 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 store inspection reports and photos in case you need to file a claim. This is especially important for custom‑built factory equipment where lead times and replacement costs are high.

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