Shipping very heavy Industrial machinery necessitates careful planning. Use Steel‑reinforced skids with clear lifting points, hire experienced machinery movers for loading, and choose suitable heavy‑haul trailers rated for the full load. Block and brace the machine to prevent any movement, and photograph its condition before pickup.
Yes, moisture‑sensitive HVAC equipment needs to be shielded from moisture. Use Shrink wrap with drying agents inside, cap all duct and cable openings, and book Enclosed trailers whenever possible. For ocean freight, evaluate enhanced corrosion protection for long voyages.
Exporting Construction machinery typically involves a customs invoice, packing list, Bill of lading, and any control permits applicable to your destination. Customs brokers typically 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 Generators are best protected by stand‑alone coverage, as carrier liability is usually limited and may not cover full replacement cost. Insure for Full value, confirm that rigging are covered, and store 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 Construction machines may be stored outdoors short‑term if packaging is designed for it and placed on Elevated dunnage, not bare ground. However, moisture‑sensitive items like air handling units and power equipment 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.
Due to the size and weight of industrial machinery and construction equipment, specialized handling equipment and techniques are required during loading and unloading. Proper securing methods must be employed to prevent movement during transit, and equipment may need to be disassembled for shipping to comply with container size limits.
Required documentation typically includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any necessary export licenses from China.
