Reliable Export Packing for Global Shipping Challenges

Export packing involves many methodologies, and it’s not as simple as it may seem. We specialize in meeting complex packaging and shipping requirements, ensuring products are shipped on time and arrive safely anywhere in the world, even after rugged handling and exposure to harsh weather conditions.

Customers looking to package and ship products to overseas destinations can count on us as a consolidation point. We maintain strategic partnerships with several freight forwarders around the globe and are conveniently located near major East Coast ports, including New York, Newark, Philadelphia, and Baltimore.

With over 40 years of professional experience, we’ve protected all types of machines and parts, from fragile microchips requiring ESD protection to high-value titanium pumps with sensitive electronics.

Our export packaging services also include solutions for delicate antiques, fine artwork, and heavy industrial machinery. The world presents many different environmental challenges your product may face, which is why every export shipment demands special attention and a customized approach.

We pay attention to the details because there are a lot of questions that need answers.

  • Will it ship by truck, ocean, air, or a combination?

  • Are special markings or custom documents required?

  • What type of climate will it be exposed to?

  • How will it be unloaded and transported once it reaches its destination?

  • Is it intended for immediate use or long-term storage?

  • Will it be stored outdoors or under a roof?

  • What’s the item’s value, and if damaged, how easily can it be replaced?

  • Do you need OCONUS insurance?

If the item is too difficult to move, we will do it on your site and arrange for crane assistance. Our staff will assure product safety from transit damage that can occur over long distances and rough handling. We know how to select special stock mounts, corrosive inhibitors, and desiccant, as needed. ActionPak can even send a team to pack extra large and hard to move heavy products at your designated location.
