Shipping Sporting Goods from Izmir to Newark via Ocean Freight

For most Toys and sporting goods, a Standard dry container Is sufficient, but exporters should Verify door seals and use drying agents. For High-value board games with sensitive cardboard or printed materials, evaluate enhanced humidity control on routes with large temperature swings.

To reduce stacking damage for Medium-weight Toys and games, Use higher burst-strength cartons, Limit pallet height, and use edge protectors. Mark pallets of games with “Single Stack Only” where appropriate, and confirm heavier sports equipment are not loaded on top of lighter leisure products.
