How to prepare the pallet for shipping to China?

Ensure that your goods do not overhang the edge of the pallet base. This can lead to damage which will not be covered, as well as additional charges for more delivery space.
Palletised goods must be made fast with shrink wrapping, ratchet straps, rope or banding. The pallet may be re-loaded up to 8 times during delivery, and must be stable; take care to avoid packing a top-heavy pallet.
Ensure that your goods are given sufficient protection against damage by wrapping them in bubble wrap, cardboard, polystyrene, or other packaging materials.
Pallets may be stacked to maximise usage of space in delivery vehicles. If this is not appropriate for your goods, ensure that this information is displayed on the outside of the pallet.
Engine parts and gearboxes must be shipped through our dedicated delivery service - call us on 0871 288 5741 for a quote.

China FAQs

Do I need to deal with customs when shipping a pallet from the UK to China?

China’s customs arrangements are more complicated than you might be used to when shipping to Europe. All goods sent to China must be accompanied with documents detailing the contents of the parcel or pallet, its value, the country in which it was produced and a tariff code. If the value of the goods is above 500 Yuan (roughly £57), a hefty customs fee of around 20-30% of the item’s value is charged. Although this may sound daunting, ParcelBroker will help you deal with Chinese customs to make the process as smooth as possible.
