Ningbo Logistics Company's Packaging Requirements for Goods

Ningbo Logistics Company's Packaging Requirements: Packaging is a crucial factor affecting transportation quality, which can be handled either by the shipper themselves or entrusted to a packaging company. If the service is provided by the company, there will be an additional fee involved. It's advisable not to skimp on this cost. The choice of packaging materials should be based on the quality of the goods, with the aim of providing protection and support for the products. Common types include wooden boxes and cardboard boxes. Different countries have varying requirements for wooden boxes, with some regions and countries requiring them to be fumigated.

1. Product packaging must be sturdy, intact, and lightweight, capable of preventing: packaging breakage and contents from spilling out; damage or spoilage of goods due to stacking, friction, vibration, or changes in air pressure and temperature; injury to personnel or contamination of aircraft, equipment, and other items.

2. The shape of the packaging should not only be suitable for the nature, condition, and weight of the goods but also facilitate handling, loading, and stacking. The exterior of the packaging must not have sharp edges, nails, hooks, or thorns; the packaging must be clean, dry, free of odors, and not greasy.

3. Goods and animals carried under specific conditions, such as perishable and live goods, must be packaged in accordance with the specific requirements for such items.

All cargo transported by sealed cabin aircraft must not be packaged with materials containing debris or straw fragments (straw bags, ropes, etc.), and the padding materials inside the packaging (such as chaff, wood shavings, paper shavings, etc.) must not leak out to prevent blockage of the aircraft's sealed equipment.

5. The outer packaging of the goods is securely attached (or hung) with labels clearly indicating the number of pieces, gross weight, and destination. Additionally, as needed, stickers indicating the characteristics of the goods or operational precautions must be affixed, and the recipient's name and detailed address should be written on the side of the goods (the recipient's name and address must match those on the freight document).

Please note: Items such as pianos, ceramics, and handicrafts, which are heavy or valuable, should be packed in wooden crates.

Countries such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand have strict regulations for unprocessed logs or logs in packaging. They must be fumigated in the country of export and present recognized fumigation certificates; only then will the importing country accept the goods for import. Otherwise, fines may be imposed or the goods may be returned to the country of export.

European regulations for wood packaging materials of coniferous species require that upon import, the cargo must be accompanied by a certificate from the original country's quarantine authority stating that there are no pests.

Ningbo logistics company has no fumigation requirements for packaged goods; processed wooden furniture does not require fumigation.

Common everyday items such as books and various utensils can be self-packed in sturdy cardboard boxes and treated for moisture resistance. Fragile items should be packed carefully to prevent damage.

If conditions permit, lay a layer of items inside the cardboard box (e.g., plastic bags, fabric, etc.).

In a shipping crate, heavy and light items should be properly arranged to facilitate handling.

Ensure the box is filled to the brim with items to prevent damage during transportation. Use toilet paper, tissues, and small garments, etc., to keep contents from shifting and colliding.
