For most sports equipment and leisure products, a dry van Is sufficient, but shippers should Verify door seals and Add humidity absorbers. For collector leisure products with sensitive cardboard or printed materials, Consider Ventilated containers on routes with large temperature swings.

Prominently label pallets of Toys with “Do Not Double Stack” where appropriate, and confirm heavier sports equipment are not loaded on top of lighter leisure products.
