Shipping Toys from Colon to Paranagua via Ocean Freight

When dealing with moisture-sensitive Toys, choose 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 leisure products.

For most Toys and sporting goods, a Standard dry container is usually adequate, but shippers should confirm door seals and use drying agents. For High-value board games with sensitive cardboard or printed materials, look at enhanced humidity control on routes with High humidity.

To reduce stacking damage for Medium-weight Toys and games, choose stronger boxes, manage pallet height, and use edge protectors. Mark pallets of games with “Single Stack Only” where appropriate, and Ensure heavier sports equipment are not loaded on top of lighter Toys and games.
