When shipping from Qingdao to Yantian, prepare for the Western Pacific Typhoon Season (June-November) by building in buffer days and securing flexible routing options. Anticipate delays due to North Pacific Winter Storms (November-March) and plan for potential congestion during the Lunar New Year (mid-January to mid-February). Additionally, enhance cargo securing measures during the East Asia Rainy Season (May-October) to mitigate risks from heavy rainfall. Lastly, arrange vessel space well in advance during peak retail periods (October-December) to avoid rollovers and delays.

Shipping very heavy factory equipment necessitates careful planning. Use heavy timber skids with clear lifting points, work with 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 record its condition before pickup.
Yes, moisture‑sensitive industrial fans needs to be shielded from moisture. Use moisture‑barrier film with humidity absorbers inside, cap all duct and cable openings, and book dry containers whenever possible. For ocean freight, ask about enhanced corrosion protection for long voyages.
Exporting industrial machinery typically involves a customs invoice, packing list, waybill, and any regulatory approvals 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 should check if you 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 stand‑alone coverage, as carrier liability is usually limited and may not cover full replacement cost. Insure for replacement cost, confirm that water damage 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 heavy equipment may be stored outdoors short‑term if packaging is designed for it and placed on concrete pads, not bare ground. However, moisture‑sensitive items like industrial fans and power equipment should ideally be kept under cover or indoors. If outdoor storage is unavoidable, verify wraps and tarps regularly, maintain drainage around the site, and limit duration to reduce corrosion and electrical damage.
When shipping industrial machinery and construction equipment via ocean freight, it's important to ensure that all items are securely packaged and properly loaded to prevent damage during transit. Due to the size and weight of these items, specialized equipment may be required for loading and unloading at both Qingdao and Yantian ports.
Required documentation typically includes a bill of lading, commercial invoice, packing list, and any relevant customs declarations. Since this route is within China, specific regulatory requirements may vary, and it’s essential to ensure compliance with local regulations regarding the transportation of heavy machinery.
