Shipping Generators from San Juan to Genoa via Ocean Freight

Shipping very heavy industrial machines demands careful planning. Use heavy timber skids with clear lifting points, Engage experienced machinery movers for loading, and choose Flatbed or lowboy trailers rated for the full load. Block and brace the machine to prevent any movement, and photograph its condition before pickup.

Yes, moisture‑sensitive air handling units must be shielded from moisture. Use moisture‑barrier film with Desiccant packs inside, cap all duct and cable openings, and Choose Enclosed trailers whenever possible. For ocean freight, evaluate enhanced corrosion protection for long voyages.

Exporting heavy equipment typically calls for a customs invoice, packing list, waybill, and any Export licenses applicable to your destination. We recommend including serial numbers, model numbers, and precise weights for each unit, especially for Generators. 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 Should be protected by stand‑alone coverage, as carrier liability is usually limited and may not cover full replacement cost. Insure for replacement cost, confirm that Loading and unloading are covered, and Keep inspection reports and photos in case you need to file a claim. This is especially important for custom‑built Industrial machinery where lead times and replacement costs are high.

Crated industrial machinery are occasionally stored outdoors short‑term if packaging is designed for it and placed on concrete pads, not bare ground. However, moisture‑sensitive items like HVAC equipment and Generators Are better kept 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.

When shipping industrial machinery and construction equipment via ocean freight from San Juan to Genoa, it's important to ensure that all items are properly secured and loaded onto the vessel to prevent damage during transit. Additionally, oversized or heavy equipment may require special handling procedures and equipment, such as cranes or flatbed trucks, at both ports to facilitate loading and unloading.

The necessary documentation for customs clearance when shipping industrial machinery and construction equipment from San Juan to Genoa includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any applicable export licenses or certificates.
