Shipping Generators from Navegantes to Cartagena via Ocean Freight

Shipping very heavy factory equipment necessitates 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 Document its condition before pickup.

Yes, moisture‑sensitive industrial fans needs to 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, Consider enhanced corrosion protection for long voyages.

Exporting industrial machinery typically involves 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 may also need certificates of origin, fumigation or ISPM‑15 declarations for wood packaging, and safety or emissions certificates for industrial 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 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 heavy equipment may 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, Inspect wraps and tarps regularly, maintain drainage around the site, and limit duration to reduce corrosion and electrical damage.

Required documentation includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any necessary export permits from Brazil. Additionally, customs clearance documentation must be prepared for entry into Colombia, which may include a certificate of origin and compliance with local regulations.

Seasonal weather patterns, such as heavy rainfall or storms, can affect ocean conditions along this route. It is advisable to monitor forecasts during the rainy season in Brazil, which typically runs from December to March, as this can impact shipping schedules and port operations.
