Air freight is better for urgent textbooks, exam materials, documents and a small number of important books.
Sea freight is better for larger book collections, children books, old books and non-urgent study materials because books can become heavy quickly.
A practical plan is to ship urgent textbooks by air and the rest of the books with luggage by sea freight.
Books should be split into smaller cartons instead of one very heavy carton. Heavy cartons are more likely to break during handling.
Use moisture protection for sea freight and keep documents in a separate inner bag.
Prepare an estimated quantity and purpose for the declaration if the shipment contains many books.
Declare books as textbooks, Chinese books, children books or documents rather than miscellaneous goods.
Student addresses in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane or Perth should include room number, building details and a local Australian phone number.
DDExpress connects book shipping with student luggage, Taobao forwarding and broader China to Australia logistics planning.
