For most sports equipment and leisure products, a Standard dry container Is sufficient, but exporters should confirm door seals and install Container desiccants. For High-value board games 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 add Corner posts. Mark pallets of games with “Do Not Double Stack” where appropriate, and Ensure heavier sports equipment are not loaded on top of lighter Toys and games.
