Shipping Modular Cheese Aging Units

Shipping Options

Modular cheese aging units can be shipped in two primary ways, depending on their size and weight. Shipping International offers expertise in both methods.

FCL (Full Container Load)

  • Suitable for units within standard container dimensions and weight limits.
  • Most cost-effective option.
  • Units loaded into 20ft or 40ft containers.
  • Requires securement with appropriate dunnage and lashing.

OOG (Out of Gauge)

  • For units exceeding standard container dimensions or weight limits.
  • Requires specialized handling and transportation.
  • May utilize flat racks or open-top containers.
  • Potentially involves Breakbulk shipping.
  • Heavy-lift cranes needed for loading and unloading.

Determining Shipping Method

The specific shipping method (FCL or OOG) depends on the precise dimensions and weight of your cheese aging units. Shipping International can help determine the most appropriate method.

Packaging Requirements

Proper packaging is crucial to protect your cheese aging units during transit. Sturdy wooden crates or custom-built packaging tailored to the unit's dimensions are recommended. Internal padding, such as bubble wrap, foam, or air pillows, should be used to prevent movement and impact damage. Climate control may be necessary depending on the unit's sensitivity to temperature fluctuations; this could involve insulated containers or temperature-controlled shipping. Shipping International can advise on appropriate packaging solutions.

Documentation

Ensure you have all necessary shipping documents prepared before your shipment. These typically include a commercial invoice, packing list detailing the contents of each package, a certificate of origin (if required), and any necessary import/export permits or licenses. Shipping International can provide guidance on required documentation.

Insurance

Cargo insurance is highly recommended to protect against loss or damage during transit. Various insurance options are available, offering different levels of coverage. Shipping International can assist with insurance arrangements.
