For humidity-sensitive sporting goods, Use a multi-layer approach: inner sealed plastic bag around the product or retail box, then a reinforced shipping box with padding. Include moisture absorbers for long-distance or ocean shipments of toys and games.
For most sports equipment and leisure products, a dry van Is sufficient, but shippers should check door seals and install humidity absorbers. For premium toys with sensitive cardboard or printed materials, look at additional interior lining on routes with tropical climates.
To reduce stacking damage for moderately heavy sports equipment and leisure products, Use stronger boxes, control pallet height, and add vertical supports. Clearly mark pallets of games with “No Top Load” where appropriate, and make sure heavier Sporting goods are not loaded on top of lighter Toys and games.
