During the Indian Ocean cyclone season (April-June and October-December), build in extra buffer days and secure flexible ETAs to accommodate potential delays. Additionally, consider reduced operations during Ramadan and Eid holidays (March-June), necessitating early planning for customs and port activities. Furthermore, during Brazil's wet season (October-March), account for heavier rainfall and potential port congestion, ensuring adequate time in your schedules to mitigate disruptions.

Moving moisture-sensitive Stationery Requires protective wrapping. Our team recommends bundling paper and notebooks in shrink wrap, using double-walled boxes, and including desiccant packs for longer or ocean shipments. Always book 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, Use a reinforced carton, wrap the unit in foam wrap, and pack all voids with cushioning so the item cannot shift. Clearly label the box as “Handle With Care” and prevent stacking heavy cartons on top.
You can palletize mixed loads of office materials and light office equipment, but You should Build 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 Purchasing 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. Keep 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.
The required documentation includes a bill of lading, commercial invoice, packing list, and any necessary certificates of origin or compliance with Brazilian regulations.
Office supplies should be packed securely to prevent damage during transit, and moisture-resistant packaging is recommended due to potential humidity exposure during the ocean journey.
