Shipping Snacks from Newark to St. Louis via Ground Freight

Moisture-sensitive snacks demands waterproof protection such as laminated liners inside sturdy outer cartons. Our team suggests adding silica gel and using clear handling labels on all ambient food shipments, especially when moving through humid or coastal routes.

You may ship dry food and bottled drinks together if every unit is securely packed and bottled drinks are placed at the bottom of the carton. Our logistics team recommends using separate inner boxes for beverages so that any leak does not contaminate surrounding dry food.

Most international shipments of processed food will require itemized invoices listing full product descriptions, HS codes, and values. Depending on the destination and type of beverages, you might also need manufacturer declarations and origin documentation, especially for beverages.

For processed food with medium fragility and mixed dry food and bottled drinks, most shippers choose all-risks freight insurance that includes spoilage and contamination. Be sure to accurately declare values of your beverages and note your packing methods, as insurers may evaluate packaging quality when processing claims.

Most shelf-stable food and standard beverages are shipped in standard dry vans as long as you protect from temperature extremes. Our team recommends checking manufacturer guidelines on heat sensitivity, especially for oil-based dry food, and scheduling moves to minimize exposure to very hot or very cold environments.
