Shipping Games from Piraeus to Charleston via Ocean Freight

For most Toys and sporting goods, a Standard dry container Is sufficient, but exporters should confirm door seals and Add humidity absorbers. For collector leisure products with sensitive cardboard or printed materials, Consider enhanced humidity control on routes with large temperature swings.

To reduce stacking damage for Medium-weight Toys and games, Use higher burst-strength cartons, manage pallet height, and Place vertical supports. Prominently label pallets of Toys with “Single Stack Only” where appropriate, and confirm heavier sports equipment are not loaded on top of lighter Toys and games.

Some Sporting goods, such as items with pressurized containers, may also fall under restricted articles rules and require declared classification.
