Shipping Power Equipment from Mundra to Puerto Quetzal via Ocean Freight

Shipping very heavy industrial machines Requires professional rigging. Use heavy timber skids with clear lifting points, work with 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 record its condition before pickup.

Yes, moisture‑sensitive air handling units Should be protected from rain and condensation. Use moisture‑barrier film with humidity absorbers inside, cap all duct and cable openings, and Choose dry containers whenever possible. For ocean freight, ask about Dehumidified or ventilated containers for long voyages.

Exporting heavy equipment typically Requires a detailed invoice, packing list, waybill, and any regulatory approvals 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 should check if you need certificates of origin, fumigation or ISPM‑15 declarations for wood packaging, and safety or emissions certificates for Construction machines.

High‑value backup generators Should be protected by a dedicated policy, as carrier liability is usually limited and may not cover full replacement cost. Insure for replacement cost, 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 factory equipment where lead times and replacement costs are high.

Crated industrial machinery Can sometimes be stored outdoors short‑term if packaging is properly sealed and placed on concrete pads, not bare ground. However, moisture‑sensitive items like industrial fans and Generators should ideally be kept under cover or indoors. If outdoor storage is unavoidable, verify wraps and tarps regularly, maintain drainage around the site, and Avoid long‑term exposure to reduce corrosion and electrical damage.

When shipping industrial machinery and construction equipment, it is important to ensure proper securing and bracing within the shipping container to prevent movement during transit. Additionally, oversized or heavy equipment may require special loading and unloading equipment at both Mundra and Puerto Quetzal ports.

Required documentation typically includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and specific import permits or licenses as mandated by Guatemalan regulations. It is essential to ensure that all documents comply with both Indian export laws and Guatemalan import requirements to facilitate smooth customs clearance.
