Packing & unpacking

Export Packing and Unpacking in UAE

Cargo that is packed properly arrives in the condition it left in. We arrange packing at origin and unpacking at destination alongside the freight.

What we offer

Packed for the journey, unpacked at the other end

Most damage and many customs queries start with the packing, so getting it right at origin is the cheapest protection your cargo can have.

We arrange packing to suit the cargo and the mode it will travel by, whether that is palletising and wrapping, crating, or loading and securing a container. At the destination we arrange unpacking and the removal of packing material, so the consignment reaches you ready to use.

Packing and crating

Cartons, pallets and crates chosen for the weight, fragility and mode of transport.

Palletising and wrapping

Cargo stacked, wrapped and strapped so it stays stable through handling.

Marking and labelling

Shipping marks, handling labels and cargo details applied so each package can be identified and handled correctly.

Container loading and unloading

Loading and securing at origin and unloading at destination, as part of the same booking.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

The questions we are asked most often about this service.

Goods are lifted, stacked and moved many times between origin and destination, so weak packing is the most common cause of damage. Correct packing also prevents delays at inspection and keeps the packing list accurate.

A packing list describes what is in each package: the contents, quantities, weights and dimensions. Carriers and customs use it alongside the commercial invoice, and it has to match the cargo.

Many countries require wooden pallets and crates to be treated and marked to an international standard for wood packaging. We will tell you whether your destination applies it before the cargo is packed.

Yes. Unpacking and clearing of packing material can be arranged as part of the booking, so the consignment arrives ready for you to use.
