When shipping from Kaohsiung to Shenzhen, prepare for the Western Pacific Typhoon Season (June-November) by building in buffer days and flexible port windows to accommodate sudden disruptions. During the East Asia Rainy Season (May-October), consider delays in cargo handling due to heavy rainfall; ensure waterproof coverings for shipments. Additionally, confirm vessel space well in advance of the Lunar New Year (mid-January to late-February) and Golden Week (October 1-7) to avoid congestion and delays.

For moisture-sensitive mixed cargo, Start by using sturdy, double-wall cartons sized closely to the contents. Line each box with a poly sleeve and seal it before closing the carton. Our team suggests separating plastic tableware and other fragile miscellaneous items with dividers or bubble wrap, then filling voids with paper or foam so nothing moves. Finally, protect the palletized load with stretch film, including a top sheet, to reduce exposure to humidity and light rain during handling.
Yes, you can ship single-use items with heavier Other goods, but you should control how they are combined. Place heavier cartons at the bottom of the pallet and lighter boxes with travel kits on top. Inside each carton, include inner boxes or dividers so sharp or rigid items do not deform softer plastics. Most carriers recommend limiting stack height and marking “Do Not Crush” when mixed cartons contain fragile plastic tableware or thin packaging materials.
For medium-weight assorted products, Choose export-strength boxes that can handle stacking in trucks or containers. Smaller, well-filled cartons generally perform better than oversized boxes with lots of empty space. For shipments that include cartons and boxes, pack separately sharp-edged items so they do not cut into neighboring variety goods. On pallets, add corner protectors and strapping to keep the load square and stable, especially for mixed consumer goods moving through multiple hubs.
In most cases, travel kits shipped with other General merchandise only require standard commercial documentation, but accuracy is important. Exporters should list each product group separately on the commercial invoice and packing list, indicating quantities and weights for items like disposables. Use clear, non-technical descriptions and add handling marks such as “Keep Dry” or “Fragile” where appropriate. If any component of the travel kits (for example, aerosols or batteries) is regulated, verify with your carrier for additional dangerous goods documentation and packing rules.
Store containers and boxes and other Miscellaneous items in a clean, dry area away from direct sunlight and open dock doors. Keep cartons on pallets or shelving rather than directly on the floor to avoid moisture wicking into boxes, especially for moisture-sensitive single-use items. Most warehouses recommend maintaining good airflow and using dehumidifiers or desiccant where humidity is high. Rotate stock so older boxes and plastic goods are used first, ensuring they retain enough strength for safe stacking and transport.
Mixed Consumer Goods require careful packing and labeling to ensure compliance with regulations and to facilitate customs clearance. It is important to consolidate items properly to minimize damage during ocean transport, and to ensure that all goods are documented accurately to prevent delays at both ports.
Regulatory requirements for shipping from Taiwan to China include obtaining the appropriate export permits from Taiwanese authorities and ensuring compliance with Chinese import regulations. Additionally, a detailed packing list and commercial invoice are necessary for customs clearance in Shenzhen.
