Shipping Prefabricated Waste Collection Sheds

Cargo Description

Prefabricated waste collection sheds are shipped disassembled into sections (walls, roof panels, flooring, supporting structures). Dimensions and weight of each section will determine the shipping method.

Shipping Methods

  • FCL (Full Container Load)

    Most cost-effective if sections fit within 20ft or 40ft containers. Proper securing is crucial.

  • OOG (Out of Gauge)

    Necessary if sections exceed standard container dimensions. Requires specialized handling and potentially Breakbulk shipping.

  • Breakbulk

    Used for exceptionally large/heavy sections or small quantities. Cargo loaded directly onto the vessel; careful planning and securing are essential.

Choosing a Shipping Method

The best method depends on the shed's dimensions, weight, and quantity. Shipping International can assist in selecting the most efficient and cost-effective shipping option.

Packaging and Crating Specifications

Sections must be adequately protected for transit. Use plywood or equivalent strong materials for crating. Apply protective film to prevent scratches and moisture damage. Clear, durable labeling is crucial, including contents, weight, handling instructions, and destination details. Compliance with ISPM 15 (International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures No. 15) for wood packaging material may be required.

Documentation Requirements

Necessary shipping documents include, but are not limited to: commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, certificates of origin (if required), import/export licenses (if required), and any other documentation required by the importing and exporting countries.

Insurance and Liability

Cargo insurance is highly recommended to protect against loss or damage during transit. The specific terms of liability will be outlined in the shipping contract. It's crucial to clarify who is responsible for damage or loss at each stage of the shipping process (e.g., shipper, carrier, receiver).
