While the cheapest way to move goods overseas is by Sea, sending smaller quantity is not advisable due to the marginal difference in freight between air and sea, plus the painful delays of arrival by sea. At the time of survey, we realized the nature of the goods are clothes, books, curios, cutlery, paintings, photo frames and small furniture weighing not more than 500 kilograms and suggested Air cargo with a 10 days delivery timeline. Our next step We connected with various international cargo partners to be sure to work with an appropriate partner to deliver the goods in the shortest possible time, while recognizing the fact that it can take several days for the goods to arrive in the US given the current situation. Delays can happen over and above the committed date of arrival which we effectively communicated to the customer to be aware of such unwelcome surprises. What packing material to use After acquiring the knowledge about the nature and volume of goods, we had suitable suggested our customer to condense a few things that will help them reduce the overall weight. While we considered various options for packing the belongings, we chose the following material to pack the goods in the best possible manner for international cargo: •Strong 7 ply cardboard boxes •Generous amount of cargo sheet to wrap each item perfectly •Bubble wraps for the 2nd layer and shrink wraps for the 3rd layer •Thermocol sheets for the paintings and photo frames •Blanket wraps for small furniture pieces •Tapes and Fragile Labels

This is done to reduce the space. •We sorted all items according to their type and packed them perfectly in the carton boxes. All items were packed in 3 layers of corrugated sheets, bubble wraps and shrink wraps for reinforcement. •The packers added generous layers of cloth in the boxes for chinaware and other glass items for added padding at the bottom of the box and in between the articles. •Taped and labelled the all the boxes and other units.
