Shipping Office Equipment from Navegantes to Minneapolis via Ocean Freight

Shipping moisture-sensitive Stationery Requires Sealed inner protection. Our team recommends bundling paper and notebooks in shrink wrap, using double-walled boxes, and placing desiccant packs for longer or ocean shipments. Always select enclosed transport and avoid exposure to rain or damp storage areas.

Small Office equipment should ideally be shipped in the Original manufacturer box with molded inserts. If that is not available, Use a Double-walled carton, wrap the unit in foam wrap, and pack all voids with cushioning so the item cannot shift. Clearly label the box as “Delicate Equipment” and do not allow stacking heavy cartons on top.

You can palletize mixed loads of Office products and light office equipment, but You should Build the pallet carefully. Place heavier cartons (e.g., copy paper, office equipment) at the bottom, lighter stationery on top, and secure the load with edge protectors 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 Stationery, carrier default liability may be sufficient, but for bulk pallets or office equipment, We recommend Purchasing cargo insurance. It can cover Moisture damage that standard carrier liability may not fully reimburse, especially for higher-value office equipment or large volumes of paper products.

Office products 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 Ensure 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.

Office supplies should be packaged securely to prevent damage during transit, considering exposure to moisture and varying temperatures at sea. Use waterproof and sturdy materials for packaging and ensure fragile items are cushioned appropriately.

Required documentation includes a commercial invoice, packing list, and a bill of lading. Additionally, ensure compliance with U.S. customs regulations, which may involve declaring the value of the goods and any applicable tariffs for office supplies.
