Shipping Leisure Products from Bogota to Shekou via Ocean Freight

For humidity-sensitive Toys, select a multi-layer approach: inner poly sleeve around the product or retail box, then a double-wall box with cushioning. Add moisture absorbers for long-distance or ocean shipments of toys and games.

For most sports equipment and leisure products, a Standard dry container normally works, but shippers should confirm door seals and use drying agents. For High-value board games with sensitive cardboard or printed materials, look at additional interior lining on routes with large temperature swings.

To reduce stacking damage for moderately heavy Toys and games, select stronger boxes, manage pallet height, and use edge protectors. Mark pallets of games with “No Top Load” where appropriate, and confirm heavier sports equipment are not loaded on top of lighter Toys and games.

Yes, many countries have Safety and labeling rules for certain leisure products. Shippers should confirm that all Toys meet destination standards (such as ASTM/EN standards) and that Documentation is available if customs requests it. Some sports equipment, such as items with aerosols, may also fall under restricted articles rules and require DG documentation.

Because toys and leisure products often have High retail value and are vulnerable to humidity issues, taking out cargo insurance makes sense. Cover your games at Full replacement value and verify that the policy includes humidity damage, especially for ocean or long-term storage moves.

Shipments must include a commercial invoice, packing list, and a bill of lading. Additionally, specific import permits may be required for certain toys and sporting goods, depending on their material and safety standards as mandated by Chinese regulations.

Yes, shipping during peak seasons, such as before major holidays or events, may lead to increased cargo volumes and potential delays at ports. It is advisable to plan shipments accordingly to avoid congestion, especially in Shekou, which handles a high volume of imports during these times.
