When shipping from Taipei to Puerto Caldera, be mindful of the East Asia rainy season (May-October) and allow for extra buffer time due to potential port congestion and inland disruptions. Book vessel space well in advance during peak retail periods (October-December) to avoid capacity shortages. Expect extended transit times during typhoon season (June-November) and adjust cut-off times accordingly. Additionally, work closely with local agents to manage logistics during the Lunar New Year disruptions (late-January to mid-February) for smoother operations.

Shipping moisture-sensitive office materials demands moisture barriers. Most carriers recommend bundling paper and notebooks in Poly bags, 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 OEM packaging with molded inserts. If that is not available, build a heavy-duty box, wrap the unit in protective padding, and Fill 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 must create the pallet carefully. Position heavier cartons (e.g., copy paper, office equipment) at the bottom, lighter stationery on top, and lock 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, our team recommends Purchasing 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 clean, climate-moderated areas away from direct sunlight and sources of moisture. Store 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, limit storage in areas with extreme temperature swings that could affect electronics or lubricants.
