Shipping Packaged Food from Nuevo Laredo to Omaha via Ground Freight

Moisture-sensitive shelf-stable food demands waterproof protection such as poly bags inside sturdy outer cartons. Our team suggests adding Desiccant packs and using “Keep Dry” labels on all ambient food shipments, especially when moving through humid or coastal routes.

You are allowed to ship dry food and bottled drinks together if every unit is properly cushioned and bottled drinks are placed at the bottom of the carton. We recommend using Dividers for beverages so that any leak does not contaminate surrounding dry food.

Most international shipments of packaged groceries will require itemized invoices listing full product descriptions, HS codes, and values. Depending on the destination and type of snacks, you might also need Health certificates and Proof of origin, especially for beverages.

For shelf-stable food with medium fragility and mixed dry food and bottled drinks, most shippers choose comprehensive cargo cover that includes spoilage and contamination. Be sure to Declare the full value of your Packaged groceries and note your packing methods, as insurers may evaluate packaging quality when processing claims.

Most processed food and standard beverages are shipped in non-refrigerated transport as long as you protect from temperature extremes. We recommend checking manufacturer guidelines on Maximum storage temperature, especially for oil-based dry food, and scheduling moves to minimize exposure to very hot or very cold environments.

Shipments of packaged food from Mexico to the United States must comply with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations, including registration of the food facility and adherence to labeling requirements. Additionally, customs documentation such as a bill of lading and commercial invoice is necessary for clearance.

Packaged food should be stored in a climate-controlled environment during transit to maintain quality, as temperature fluctuations can affect shelf-stability. It's important to ensure that the cargo is secured properly to prevent damage during transport along the 1567 km route.
