When shipping from Sanshui, China to Savannah, United States, anticipate delays due to the East Asia Rainy Season (May-October) and Western Pacific Typhoon Season (June-November). Build in buffer days for port operations and confirm vessel space well in advance, especially before the China Golden Week (October 1-7) and Lunar New Year (late-January to mid-February).

Shipping moisture-sensitive Stationery necessitates moisture barriers. Our team recommends bundling paper and notebooks in shrink wrap, 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 equipment should ideally be shipped in the Original manufacturer box with molded inserts. If that is not available, create a heavy-duty box, 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 Avoid stacking heavy cartons on top.
You can palletize mixed loads of Office products and light office equipment, but You should assemble the pallet carefully. Position 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 Stationery, carrier default liability may be sufficient, but for bulk pallets or office equipment, We recommend adding cargo insurance. It can cover handling 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. Maintain pallets off the floor on racking or pallets, avoid stacking beyond recommended heights to prevent crushing, and verify 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.
