Shipping Toys from Jacksonville to Portland via Ocean Freight

For humidity-sensitive sporting goods, Use a multi-layer approach: inner poly sleeve around the product or retail box, then a double-wall box with Void fill. Place silica gel for long-distance or ocean shipments of leisure products.

For most sports equipment and leisure products, a dry van Is sufficient, but shippers should confirm door seals and use Container desiccants. For collector leisure products with sensitive cardboard or printed materials, evaluate enhanced humidity control on routes with large temperature swings.

To reduce stacking damage for moderately heavy sports equipment and leisure products, Use stronger boxes, manage pallet height, and use Corner posts. Prominently label pallets of Toys with “Single Stack Only” where appropriate, and confirm heavier sports equipment are not loaded on top of lighter leisure products.
