Shipping Games from Houston to Minneapolis via Ground Freight

For most sports equipment and leisure products, a dry van normally works, but exporters should check door seals and use drying agents. For collector leisure products with sensitive cardboard or printed materials, look at additional interior lining on routes with High humidity.

To reduce stacking damage for moderately heavy sports equipment and leisure products, select higher burst-strength cartons, control pallet height, and use edge protectors. Prominently label pallets of games with “No Top Load” where appropriate, and Ensure heavier sports equipment are not loaded on top of lighter leisure products.
