Shipping Toys from Miami to Yantian via Ocean Freight

For humidity-sensitive games, select a multi-layer approach: inner poly sleeve around the product or retail box, then a reinforced shipping box with cushioning. Place moisture absorbers for long-distance or ocean shipments of leisure products.

For most sports equipment and leisure products, a general-purpose container normally works, but shippers should confirm door seals and install drying agents. For collector leisure products with sensitive cardboard or printed materials, look at enhanced humidity control on routes with High humidity.

To reduce stacking damage for moderately heavy Toys and games, select stronger boxes, manage pallet height, and add edge protectors. Prominently label pallets of games with “Single Stack Only” where appropriate, and Ensure heavier sports equipment are not loaded on top of lighter leisure products.

Yes, many countries have product safety and labeling rules for certain leisure products. Shippers should confirm that all games meet destination standards (such as ASTM/EN standards) and that test reports is available if customs requests it. Some sports equipment, such as items with pressurized containers, may also fall under Dangerous goods rules and require DG documentation.

Because toys and leisure products often have High retail value and are vulnerable to humidity issues, taking out cargo insurance makes sense. Protect your games at commercial invoice value and verify that the policy Covers Moisture-related damage, especially for ocean or long-term storage moves.

When shipping Toys & Sporting Goods, it is essential to ensure that items are packed securely to prevent damage during transit. Additionally, special attention should be given to any regulatory requirements for toys and sporting goods, including safety certifications and compliance with both U.S. and Chinese regulations.

Required documentation typically includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any relevant certificates of conformity for safety standards. It's important to also check for any additional customs documentation that may be required for specific types of toys or sporting goods to comply with Chinese import regulations.

We rely on in-house customs brokerage with automation to reduce errors and accelerate clearance, rather than outsourcing to third-party brokers with outdated, manual documentation processes.
