Shipping Portable Signal Boosters: A Guide

UK Shipments

Shipping Methods

For efficient shipping of portable signal boosters, Shipping International recommends FCL (Full Container Load). Multiple FCL containers may be needed for large quantities. OOG (Out of Gauge) and Breakbulk are generally unnecessary unless boosters are unusually large/heavy or quantities are extremely low.

Packaging

Each booster should be individually packaged in a sturdy, double-walled corrugated carton (minimum 200lb burst strength) with internal dimensions allowing for at least 2 inches of cushioning on all sides. Use high-density polyethylene foam or bubble wrap as cushioning material. Cartons should be clearly labeled with "Fragile" and "Handle with Care." Pallet size and configuration should be optimized for efficient loading and stability.

Handling Instructions

Boosters must be handled with care to prevent damage. Avoid dropping, stacking excessively, or subjecting them to extreme temperatures or moisture. Use appropriate lifting equipment (e.g., forklifts, pallet jacks) and ensure secure fastening to pallets. Drivers should be instructed to handle the shipment with extra care. Report any damage immediately.

• Commercial Invoice: Detailing contents, quantity, value, and weight.
