Shipping Toys from Mexico City to Charlotte via Ocean Freight

For humidity-sensitive sporting goods, choose a two-stage approach: inner sealed plastic bag around the product or retail box, then a double-wall box with Void fill. Include Desiccant packs for long-distance or ocean shipments of leisure products.

For most sports equipment and leisure products, a dry van is usually adequate, but exporters should check door seals and use Container desiccants. For premium toys with sensitive cardboard or printed materials, Consider enhanced humidity control on routes with High humidity.

To reduce stacking damage for moderately heavy sports equipment and leisure products, choose higher burst-strength cartons, control pallet height, and use Corner posts. Clearly mark pallets of Toys with “Single Stack Only” where appropriate, and Ensure heavier Sporting goods are not loaded on top of lighter leisure products.

Cover your Toys at commercial invoice value and Confirm that the policy includes Moisture-related damage, especially for ocean or long-term storage moves.
