Packing Restrictions Oceanair (Int’l) Ltd

-Please Read Carefully-

Oceanair wants to make sure all our moves / relocations are safe and in compliance with governmental regulations. That is why we created this fact sheet to warn shippers of dangers that can arise from packing certain common household products for shipment, as well as to inform shippers that certain laws prohibit the packing of hazardous or restricted items in any shipment.

Many common household items, including aerosol hair spray and cleaning products, are very hazardous when packed. Heat quickly builds up inside the containers, which can trigger an explosion or fire that could not only cause serious damage to a shipment, but endanger the lives of passengers/transporters as well. Oceanair crews and agents are trained not to pack or load any articles that are considered hazardous or restricted. Therefore, for everyone’s safety, please make sure none of the items on our partial list below, are packed in a shipment to be moved.

Please carefully review the list below and eliminate all dangerous items before packing. Because violators are subject to heavy fines and, or imprisonment, Oceanair crews and agents are authorised to remove these items if they are packed. If removed, these items are not claimable on insurance. In addition, make sure to be aware of the destination country’s customs guidelines for prohibited items (i.e. food items, adult materials, electronics, etc) when packing.
