When shipping from Ningbo, China to Callao, Peru, expect significant delays due to the East Asia Rainy Season (May-October) and Western Pacific Typhoon Season (June-November). Allow for additional buffer days for port operations and confirm vessel space well in advance, especially during peak periods like the Christmas Retail Peak (October-December) and Lunar New Year (mid-January to late-February). Monitor weather conditions and evaluate flexible routing options to mitigate potential disruptions and ensure timely delivery.

Shipping very heavy industrial machines necessitates professional rigging. Use heavy timber skids with clear lifting points, work with experienced machinery movers for loading, and choose step‑deck or lowboy equipment rated for the full load. Stabilize and strap the machine to prevent any movement, and photograph its condition before pickup.
Yes, moisture‑sensitive air handling units needs to be protected from rain and condensation. Use moisture‑barrier film with humidity absorbers inside, cap all duct and cable openings, and select covered transport whenever possible. For ocean freight, evaluate enhanced corrosion protection for long voyages.
Exporting heavy equipment typically involves a detailed invoice, packing list, waybill, and any regulatory approvals applicable to your destination. Most freight forwarders recommend including serial numbers, model numbers, and precise weights for each unit, especially for power equipment. For some destinations, authorities may require certificates of origin, fumigation or ISPM‑15 declarations for wood packaging, and safety or emissions certificates for industrial machines.
High‑value backup generators 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 retain 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 industrial machinery 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 backup generators are safest under cover or indoors. If outdoor storage is unavoidable, check wraps and tarps regularly, maintain drainage around the site, and limit duration to reduce corrosion and electrical damage.
Proper packing and securing of industrial machinery and construction equipment are crucial to prevent damage during the ocean transit of 17,251 km. Additionally, ensuring that all equipment is compliant with international shipping standards and properly labeled for handling is essential.
Required documentation includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any necessary export permits from China, as well as import permits and compliance certificates for Peru. All documents must accurately reflect the nature and value of the industrial machinery being shipped.
