Shipping very heavy factory equipment necessitates 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. Secure and chock the machine to prevent any movement, and Document its condition before pickup.
Yes, moisture‑sensitive industrial fans needs to be protected from rain and condensation. Use sealed plastic covers with drying agents inside, cap all duct and cable openings, and Choose dry containers whenever possible. For ocean freight, Consider Dehumidified or ventilated containers for long voyages.
Exporting industrial machinery typically involves 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 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 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 rigging are covered, and Keep 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 heavy equipment may be 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 should ideally be kept 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.
Required documentation typically includes a bill of lading, commercial invoice, packing list, and any necessary export permits from Mexico, as well as compliance with U.S. customs regulations, including an Importer Security Filing (ISF) and any applicable certifications for industrial machinery.
Yes, shipments must comply with U.S. customs regulations, including proper classification of machinery, adherence to safety and environmental standards, and payment of any applicable tariffs or duties.
