Shipping Office Products from Bangkok to Buenaventura via Ocean Freight

Moving moisture-sensitive Stationery necessitates protective wrapping. Our team recommends bundling paper and notebooks in Poly bags, using double-walled boxes, and placing desiccant packs for longer or ocean shipments. Always Choose enclosed transport and avoid exposure to rain or damp storage areas.

Small office devices should ideally be shipped in the Original manufacturer box with molded inserts. If that is not available, create a reinforced carton, wrap the unit in foam wrap, and Fill all voids with cushioning so the item cannot shift. Clearly label the box as “Delicate Equipment” and Avoid stacking heavy cartons on top.

You can palletize mixed loads of office materials and light office equipment, but You should assemble the pallet carefully. Load heavier cartons (e.g., copy paper, office equipment) at the bottom, lighter stationery on top, and secure the load with Corner boards and stretch wrap. Keep moisture-sensitive paper away from pallet edges and add a top sheet or pallet cover if there is any risk of humidity or light rain during handling.

For small parcel shipments of low-value office materials, carrier default liability may be sufficient, but for bulk pallets or office equipment, We recommend adding cargo insurance. It can cover loss and breakage that standard carrier liability may not fully reimburse, especially for higher-value office equipment or large volumes of paper products.

Office materials should be stored in Dry, temperature-stable areas away from direct sunlight and sources of moisture. Maintain pallets off the floor on racking or pallets, avoid stacking beyond recommended heights to prevent crushing, and confirm that cartons of moisture-sensitive stationery are not placed near dock doors or damp walls. For office equipment, prevent storage in areas with extreme temperature swings that could affect electronics or lubricants.

When shipping office supplies via ocean freight, it is important to ensure that items are packaged securely to prevent damage during transit. Consideration should be given to the weight and fragility of office equipment, as well as proper labeling to facilitate customs clearance.

Regulatory requirements may include obtaining necessary export permits from Thai authorities and ensuring compliance with Colombian import regulations, including customs declarations and tariffs applicable to office supplies. Proper documentation such as invoices, packing lists, and certificates of origin may also be required for smooth customs processing.
