Shipping Stationery from Kobe to New Orleans via Ocean Freight

Transporting moisture-sensitive Stationery necessitates protective wrapping. Our team recommends bundling paper and notebooks in Poly bags, using rigid cartons, and including desiccant packs for longer or ocean shipments. Always book enclosed transport and avoid exposure to rain or damp storage areas.

Small desktop office equipment 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. Prominently mark the box as “Handle With Care” and prevent stacking heavy cartons on top.

You can palletize mixed loads of stationery 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 apply 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.

Stationery 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 such as stationery and office equipment are packed securely to prevent damage during transit. Additionally, moisture-resistant packaging may be necessary to protect against humidity during ocean transport.
