Fragile Items 
 

The following items are usually fragile and subject to crating

  • Big/flat screen TVs
  • Chandeliers
  • Large porcelain/glass figurines
  • Mirrors

Crating ensures fragile items with insufficient protection arrive safely at their international destination.
When an item is flagged for crating at their U.S. Address, a customer has the following options;

  • Ship the parcel as it is. When a shipment is flagged as insufficiently protected, insurance will only cover lost or missing items, not for damages and breakages.
  • Crate the package. Crating will ensure that contents are not damaged during delivery and the package will be insured.

Crating fees will be determined on an individual basis and customers will be notified of crating details when their shipments arrive at their U.S. Address.

Please note that crating will also affect shipping rate as dimensions will change. Rates will be determined by volumetric or actual weight, whatever is higher.

Below is an example of estimation of crating a 52” LED TV:
Cost for crating: USD$250.00
Original package chargeable weight: 51kg
After crating – chargeable weight: 75kg

Please allow 7 business days for crating services.
