Shipping Containers from Shekou to Bogota via Ocean Freight

For moisture-sensitive mixed cargo, begin by using sturdy, double-wall cartons sized closely to the contents. Line each box with a Plastic liner and seal it before closing the carton. We recommend 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 must control how they are combined. Place heavier cartons at the bottom of the pallet and lighter boxes with Plastic products 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, select Heavy-duty corrugated cartons 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 Packaging materials, pack separately sharp-edged items so they do not cut into neighboring variety goods. On pallets, apply 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. You should list each product group separately on the commercial invoice and packing list, indicating quantities and weights for items like Packaging supplies. 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 Plastic products. We 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.

When shipping Mixed Consumer Goods, it is important to ensure proper packaging to protect various items from damage during transit. Additionally, cargo should be consolidated efficiently to maximize space and minimize shipping costs. Mixed cargo may require specific stowage practices to prevent shifting and ensure stability during ocean transport.

Exporters must comply with both Chinese export regulations and Colombian import regulations, which include obtaining necessary permits and ensuring that products meet safety and quality standards. Documentation such as commercial invoices, packing lists, and certificates of origin may be required for customs clearance in both countries.
