For most sports equipment and leisure products, a Standard dry container normally works, but shippers should confirm door seals and use drying agents. For collector leisure products with sensitive cardboard or printed materials, Consider Ventilated containers on routes with High humidity.
To reduce stacking damage for moderately heavy Toys and games, select stronger boxes, manage pallet height, and use edge protectors. Prominently label pallets of Toys with “Do Not Double Stack” where appropriate, and Ensure heavier Sporting goods are not loaded on top of lighter Toys and games.
