Advices For Your LCL Cargo
- Any material used for packing and transporting your LCL cargo should be wood-treated and the ISPM-15 verified stamps should be visible. This applies to pallets, dunnage, wooden boxes, and any block and brace materials
- 2 Use high-quality packing material and do so with care as your shipment will be exposed to sudden and brusque movements during handling and transportation.
- When shipping fragile merchandise, make sure to use appropriate labels and ensure they’re visible. When possible, label all sides of the box.
