Easy Stuffing & De Stuffing
Shipping containers that are properly filled reduce the risk of damage to freight, and help prevent the loss of assets for both importers as well as exporters. Damage to freight is caused by a variety of factors, including uneven weight distribution and the constant shifting of cargo during transport.
Incorrect container stuffing may cause time-consuming and expensive losses for both shippers and transporters. To avoid these losses, it is essential to follow a load-plan and maximise container space. Using the right tools and equipment can speed up the process of filling containers and also improves the safety and efficiency. It is crucial to choose an experienced team and certified, since they are knowledgeable about shipping, handling and storage procedures.

Cargo damaged during the process of stuffing and transportation can be caused by a variety of factors such as uneven distribution of heavy goods as well as insufficient control of humidity and temperature, and a lack of care caused by mistakes during loading. Incorrect stuffing can cause the cargo to shift during transport, which can lead to the loss of valuable items. You can avoid this by following essential best practices. Use dunnage to fill in gaps or voids within the shipping container. Palletise your cargo as much as you can and label boxes and packages accurately to make it easy to identify.
