Air Freight Shipping
What to Know When Shipping Household Goods via Air with an International Shipping Company
Sea and Air Experts advises, there are several things to consider when shipping household goods with an International Shipping Company. Air Freight is the quickest mode of International Shipping available, but before one embarks on this endeavor there are a few things to consider.
Sea and Air Experts & several companies offer International Air Freight Shipping for household goods. Since the price of International Shipping is calculated by weight and volume, the most important thing to keep in mind is how much items weigh and how much cargo space they will take up in the cargo bay. For Air freight shipping the minimum weight for shipping is 100 Kilograms per load with an upward limit of approximately 5,000 Kilograms at full capacity.
Once the weight and volume is calculated one must decide where their International shipment is going and how quickly the household goods need to be at the destination. Sea and Air Experts & most companies charge a premium for expedited services, so having a flexible timetable is recommended. Allowing enough time for delays and Customs Services enables shipments to arrive on time even if unexpected delays happen.
Once weight, destination, and delivery dates are accounted for, plans for packaging insurance, and Customs fees are vital. Household items are shipped internationally for a number of reasons. Two common reasons are business and personal. Businesses may have a separate department to handle packing, organizing, and customs. These shipments will not require special attention, but personal household shipments are a different matter.

For personal shipments Sea and Air Experts & many companies offer packing, delivery, insurance, and Customs handling. Rates vary, so specifics such as weight, size, time-frame, and special handling instructions may be required. International Air Freight shipping is an intricate process, but with a little planning and research, the process can be accomplished with little or no difficulty.

West
coast news – port/s issues
20
container ships are now anchored off Los Angeles-Long Beach waiting to berth.
The Marine Exchange of Southern California reported that the vessels at anchor increased by four since Monday. Shipping lines say vessels in recent weeks have been sitting at anchor for seven to 14 days, and when they proceed to berth, it takes another six to eight days to work the ships. Vessels in the trans-Pacific have been thrown so far off schedule that at least one line has no vessels available to carry containers from Asia because all of its ships are stuck on the West Coast.
Meanwhile, contract negotiations between the International Longshore and Warehouse Union and the Pacific Maritime Association appear to be going nowhere. Significant progress was made when the PMA on Jan. 26 confirmed that a tentative agreement was reached that would allow ILWU mechanics to inspect all chassis before they leave the marine terminals.
However, with hopes raised that a settlement could be forthcoming in a matter of weeks, ILWU negotiators reportedly stunned employers by returning to the bargaining table the next day with a dozen new demands, some of which are considered to be highly controversial.
Meanwhile, a dangerous standoff between employers and the ILWU continues. The PMA several weeks ago discontinued all vessel work on night shifts at all West Coast ports. Employers said the container yards had become so congested that night shifts would concentrate on clearing out the container yards so the yards would be able to accept containers when vessel work resumed the next morning.
The PMA said the crisis began to unfold in Los Angeles-Long Beach when the ILWU on Nov. 3 notified employers that the union hall would slash from 110 to 35 the number of yard crane operators that would be dispatched each day, and that has been the routine each day for the past three months.
The ILWU denies hard-timing employers, and said congestion has been present at the ports since last summer because of operational issues.
Conditions are not much better at other West Coast gateways. In fact, some lines are pulling back on their services to Oakland because of severe congestion at the Northern California port. In a service advisory to its customers on Jan. 30, Maersk Line reported that since the port “has hit a significant roadblock in its ability to service oceanborne cargo,” some future voyages will be terminated in Southern California, and Northern California cargo will be sent there via rail. The normal rotation in the Pacific Southwest is for vessels to call inbound in Los Angeles-Long Beach to discharge 80 percent or more of the containers, and then to stop in Oakland before proceeding back to Asia. Oakland reported four vessels at anchor and 14 outside of the Golden Gate Bridge on Tuesday.
Seattle and Tacoma are also terribly congested, with seven container vessels reported to be at anchor and awaiting berthing space. The PMA said the ILWU is hard-timing employers in Oakland and Seattle-Tacoma by reducing crane productivity from a historical level of about 28 container moves per crane, per hour. The ILWU denies engaging in work slowdowns in the northern ports, although the PMA has maintained a running count of crane productivity each day.
Contract negotiations began on May 12, 2014, and proceeded without incident even after the previous West Coast waterfront contract expired on July 1. Port congestion has been an issue since last summer. Big ships discharging thousands of containers in a single vessel call, carrier alliances discharging containers over multiple terminals in the same port complex, chassis shortages and dislocations and intermodal rail service problems contributed to the congestion.
The PMA said those problems, though real, suddenly turned into a gridlock situation in early November when the ILWU hard-timing began.
The contract negotiations have been held under the auspices of the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service since Jan. 6. The FMCS has maintained a high success rate in mediating labor disputes across the country. The mediator cannot dictate a solution, but rather attempts to bring both parties together in a spirit of compromise.
With terminal congestion and vessel backlogs now at a crisis level, time is quickly running out, and there appears to be a growing call among cargo interests and indeed some employers that more drastic actions be taken.

DOING YOUR OWN PACKING?
| |
HELPFUL PACKING INSTRUCTIONS:
Materials needed for your International Move: these items can be purchased at a hardware or moving supply store such, Strapping Tape 1.5" - 2" wide Boxes of different sizes, Waterproof markers, Bubble wrap, Corrugated cardboard for wrapping furniture and protecting furniture, Wrapping paper [ Helpful tip: newspaper can transfer ink to your contents. Clean wrapping paper can be purchased at an office supply or moving supply company. 1-2 large rolls should be enough for your packing needs ]
Old sheets, towels and blankets for wrapping furniture. [ Helpful tip: if you do not have a supply yourself, these can be purchased inexpensively at thrift stores ]
An inventory form which your sales consultant can provide you by e-mail or fax
PACKING GUIDELINES:
Helpful Tips for your Inventory:
- A complete inventory will be required for your shipment
- Each box and piece of furniture must be marked with a number (removable stickers are the best) and listed on an inventory
- The contents of boxes should read "kitchen supplies", "books", "clothes" etc. on the inventory.
- Boxes packed by our customers should also be labeled "PBO" (packed by owner).
HELPFUL TIPS FOR PACKING BOXES:
- Make sure the contents of all boxes are carefully wrapped
- Seal the seams of all boxes with strapping tape top and bottom
- Pack room-by-room, keeping similar items together
- Try to distribute weight evenly amongst boxes Place heavier items in the bottom of the box and lighter items on top
- Pack heavy items in small boxes. Tape the bottoms well
- Make sure your boxes are strong enough to support the weight of other boxes being stacked on top of them
- Label your boxes as you pack them with where they belong in your new home
- Mark the boxes on the sides, not on the top
- Any item that can be put in a box should be placed in a box
- Pack boxes firmly to prevent the contents from shifting during your move
- Bubble wraps all fragile items
- Never pack matches, flammables (such as propane tanks), dangerous articles or hazardous materials. Empty, defrost and dry refrigerators and freezers.
- All stereos, computers, printers, fax machines, televisions, speakers, etc. should be disconnected.
- All cords should be removed and packed or taped to the item.
- All packing should be completed before the movers arrive.
- Any items not being moved should be clearly marked.
HELPFUL TIPS FOR FURNITURE:
- Furniture should be wrapped with corrugated cardboard and/or old sheets, blankets and/or towels.
- Pay particular attention to delicate areas such as the tops of furniture and legs.
- Bookshelves should be removed and wrapped separately.

Containerized Cars
Container shipping for transporting your vehicle provides the safest means of transportation to your overseas destination. Your vehicle is loaded into the shipping container at one of our warehouses located throughout the U.S. Once your vehicle has been loaded into the shipping container, wooden braces are placed around each of the tires and nailed to the floor of the container.
Nylon straps are then used to tie your vehicle down and they are secured to the walls of the shipping container. Before the container is returned to the port of loading for export, a numbered seal is inserted through the doors. This seal number will be shown on all export documents relating to the shipment of your vehicle overseas.
When using a container shipping service for transporting your vehicle, please note of the following:
- A 20' container will hold one vehicle.
- A 40' container will hold two standard size vehicles.
- A 40' High Cube container can often hold three small vehicles; we can build a ramp inside the container for the third vehicle. Although at times we can load forth car it is depending on sizes
- After your vehicle(s) have been loaded into the shipping container, there may be additional space in the container for a limited amount of personal effects and household goods. Although the shipping costs will not increase for shipping your personal belongings in the container, there will be an additional cost to have your personal belongings loaded and secured in the container.
- Your vehicle must arrive at our warehouse with no more than 1-2 gallons of gasoline in the fuel tank.
- The battery will be disconnected once the vehicle has been loaded into the shipping container.
- Personal items are permitted to be shipped inside your vehicle. However, they must be secured and we must receive a detailed packing list.
- Hazardous items are not permitted to be shipped in your vehicle or the container.
- When the container arrives to the overseas port, you will need to make arrangements to have the container transported from the port to a warehouse for unloading. If requested, we can often handle these arrangements on your behalf.
- Marine insurance, though not a requirement is strongly recommended when shipping your vehicle overseas. Your domestic auto insurance will not cover a loss or damage to your vehicle while it is in transit to an overseas location. The liability of all steamship lines is limited to $500.00 per vehicle or shipping container.
Please call 866-788-3370 for more details about shipping your car or cars in a container and see if this service meets your needs. For further information visit us at www.seaandairexperts.com
