When shipping from Zhongshan, China to Paranagua, Brazil, account for the East Asia rainy season (May-October) and the Brazil wet season (October-March). Build in extra buffer days to schedules due to potential port congestion and weather disruptions. Book vessel space well in advance, especially around the Golden Week holiday (October 1-7) and during the South America soy export peak (February-June). Coordinate closely with carriers for real-time schedule changes, as cyclone risks can significantly impact transit times.

Shipping moisture-sensitive Stationery demands protective wrapping. 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 Original manufacturer box with molded inserts. If that is not available, build a reinforced carton, 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 should create the pallet carefully. Load 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, We recommend Purchasing 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.
Office products should be stored in Dry, temperature-stable 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 confirm 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.
Office supplies should be packed securely to prevent damage during transit, as they are often sensitive to moisture and physical impact. It is advisable to use waterproof packaging and cushioning materials to protect against humidity and rough handling at sea.
Shipping office supplies from China to Brazil requires compliance with both countries' customs regulations. Importers must provide a commercial invoice, packing list, and any necessary certificates of conformity for specific products. Additionally, all items must be declared accurately to avoid delays in customs clearance at Paranagua.
