Choosing the Right Packaging for Shipping to France

Choosing the Right Packaging for Shipping to France

Zero Damage on the France Road: The Power of Correct Packaging

A shipment from Turkey to France covers a land journey of approximately 3,500 kilometers and multiple customs handlings. In this long adventure, the most basic way to minimize risks such as vibration, moisture, or external impact that may happen to your belongings is 'Correct Packaging'. As Han Bros Cargo, we know that every item has its own unique protection need. The packaging discipline of a dining room set going to France and a sensitive electronic device are completely different. Our professional team uses the most modern packaging techniques accepted in international logistics literature for the damage-free delivery of your belongings.

Customized Packaging Solutions by Item Type

Expert methods we use in France shipping:

  • Armoring for Furniture: Your sofas and tables are first wrapped with dust-protective stretches, shock-absorbing thick bubble wraps (bubble wrap) and special cardboard protectors on the corners are placed and fixed with transport blankets.
  • Sensitive and Glass Items: Kitchen utensils and porcelains are first wrapped in white papers, then placed in double-layer cardboard boxes with protective separators placed between them.
  • Clothing and Textile Products: We ensure that even the ironing of your clothes is not spoiled by using portable wardrobe boxes that offer on-site solutions for your hanging clothes.
  • Valuable and Antique Elements: We create a 100% barrier against external impacts by offering custom-sized wooden crating (crating) service for special pieces such as paintings or musical instruments.

Professional Packaging = Insurance Assurance

In inspections made at French customs and in possible risks that may occur during transport, packaging quality is a primary criterion for insurance validity. Packaging processes performed by Han Bros Cargo's certified personnel are evaluated as 'Fully Guaranteed' by international insurance organizations. Remember, we are not just carrying your belongings, we are also carrying your memories. Thanks to correct packaging, the volume (m3) inside the vehicle is also optimized, which causes your shipping costs to drop. By using environmentally friendly materials, we also recycle packaging waste after delivery.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is insurance valid if I do the packaging myself?

Which packaging materials do you use?

High-resistance Kraft paper bubble wraps, double-wave cardboard boxes, corner protector profiles, and moisture-absorbing silica packets are our standard equipment.

Do you open the packages in my new home in France?

Yes, if you chose our 'Turnkey' package, all furniture is taken out of their packages, assembled, and packaging waste is collected by our team.

Do you have a special box for kitchenware?

Yes, we use high-strength 'Kitchen-Box' boxes with special compartments and vibration absorbers for plates and glasses.

How long does the packaging process take?
