Shipping Generators from Xiamen to Newark via Ocean Freight

Shipping very heavy industrial machines Requires professional rigging. Use heavy timber skids with clear lifting points, hire experienced machinery movers for loading, and choose Flatbed or lowboy trailers 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 Should be protected from rain and condensation. Use moisture‑barrier film with drying agents inside, cap all duct and cable openings, and Choose covered transport whenever possible. For ocean freight, evaluate Dehumidified or ventilated containers for long voyages.

Exporting heavy equipment typically Requires a detailed invoice, packing list, waybill, and any control permits applicable to your destination. We 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 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 rigging are covered, and Keep 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 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 air handling units and Generators are safest under cover or indoors. If outdoor storage is unavoidable, check 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 essential to ensure that all items are securely packaged and properly loaded to prevent damage during transit. Additionally, oversized or heavy machinery may require special handling equipment and techniques, such as flat racks or custom crating, to comply with ocean freight regulations and ensure safe transport.

Regulatory requirements include compliance with U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) regulations, which mandate that all imported machinery must be declared and accompanied by appropriate documentation, such as a bill of lading, commercial invoice, and any necessary import permits. Additionally, equipment must meet U.S. safety and environmental standards, which may involve inspections and certifications prior to shipment.
