Shipping Toys & Sporting Goods from San Jose to Valparaiso via Ocean Freight

For humidity-sensitive games, Use a two-stage approach: inner poly sleeve around the product or retail box, then a Sturdy corrugated carton with cushioning. Include moisture absorbers for long-distance or ocean shipments of Sports equipment.

For most sports equipment and leisure products, a general-purpose container Is sufficient, but exporters should confirm door seals and Add drying agents. For premium toys with sensitive cardboard or printed materials, look at Ventilated containers on routes with High humidity.

To reduce stacking damage for moderately heavy Toys and games, Use higher burst-strength cartons, manage pallet height, and Place edge protectors. Clearly mark pallets of games with “Do Not Double Stack” where appropriate, and Ensure heavier Sporting goods are not loaded on top of lighter leisure products.

Exporters should confirm that all Toys meet destination standards (such as ASTM/EN standards) and that product certificates is available if customs requests it. Some sports equipment, such as items with Batteries, may also fall under Dangerous goods rules and require declared classification.
