When planning shipments from Tangier Med, Morocco to Prince Rupert, Canada, expect significant delays due to winter storm activity in the Mediterranean and North Atlantic (November-March). Build in additional buffer days for port calls and secure flexible berthing windows to mitigate congestion risks. During the peak holiday season (October-December), prioritize vessel space early to avoid tight connections.

Transporting moisture-sensitive office materials Requires moisture barriers. We recommend bundling paper and notebooks in Poly bags, using rigid cartons, and placing desiccant packs for longer or ocean shipments. Always Choose enclosed transport and avoid exposure to rain or damp storage areas.
Small desktop office equipment should ideally be shipped in the OEM packaging with molded inserts. If that is not available, Use a heavy-duty box, wrap the unit in Bubble wrap, and Fill all voids with cushioning so the item cannot shift. Prominently mark the box as “Delicate Equipment” and Avoid stacking heavy cartons on top.
You can palletize mixed loads of stationery and light office equipment, but you must Build the pallet carefully. Position heavier cartons (e.g., copy paper, office equipment) at the bottom, lighter stationery on top, and Stabilize 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, 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.
Stationery should be stored in clean, climate-moderated 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 verify that cartons of moisture-sensitive stationery are not placed near dock doors or damp walls. For office equipment, Avoid storage in areas with extreme temperature swings that could affect electronics or lubricants.
