Accurately measure your oven's length, width, and height. Weigh it precisely. Note whether it's new or used. Record any special features such as gas connections, electrical components, or delicate internal parts. Check for any residual chemicals or other hazards. Professional dismantling might be necessary for very large or complex ovens.
OOG applies when dimensions exceed standard container sizes (for example, exceeding 40ft in length, or exceeding height/width limits). Breakbulk is used for exceptionally large or heavy items shipped in parts, often needing specialised handling and securing.
Examples: OOG might be necessary for ovens exceeding 12 meters in length or 3 meters in width. Breakbulk may be required for extremely heavy ovens that cannot be safely loaded into a standard container.
Strong crating or palletisation is vital. Use plywood, bubble wrap, corner protectors, and other shock-absorbing materials. Ensure even weight distribution for stability. Clearly label packages with handling instructions ("Fragile," "This Way Up," etc.).
A detailed list of all items in the shipment, including quantity, description, weight, and dimensions of each item.
This includes details of the seller and buyer, a description of the goods, quantity, price, and payment terms.
Provide any necessary safety or compliance certificates relevant to the powder coating oven.
