The shipment type depends on the size and weight of your battery containers:
Different battery types have varying regulations and handling procedures. Ensure you understand the specific requirements for your battery type (e.g., lithium-ion, lead-acid, nickel-cadmium) before shipping. Consult the relevant regulations and Shipping International.
Determine the dimensions and weight of your battery containers to classify them as FCL, OOG, or Breakbulk. Identify the battery type and quantity.
Regardless of shipment type, proper packaging and securing are crucial. Ensure your battery containers are adequately protected against damage during transit. For FCL, secure the containers within the shipping container to prevent movement. Use appropriate packaging materials to absorb shocks and vibrations.
Identify the correct UN number and hazard class for your batteries. This is crucial for completing the Dangerous Goods Declaration. Incorrect classification can lead to delays or rejection of your shipment.
Accurate and complete documentation is essential for customs clearance and safe transport. This includes:
Include comprehensive emergency contact information on all documentation and packaging. This should include phone numbers and email addresses for both the shipper and receiver, as well as emergency contacts for the involved parties.
Select the most appropriate shipping method based on your cargo classification, budget, and timeline. Options include:
Ensure you comply with all customs regulations for importing and exporting batteries.
Consider insuring your shipment to protect against loss or damage during transit.
