Shipping Ceramics and Tableware to Australia Safely

Packing requirements for ceramics

Wrap each piece individually, add dividers between bowls and plates, and fill cartons tightly. Add buffer outside original gift boxes.

Wood crating and compensation

Crate high-value porcelain: reinforcement from 200 RMB, boxes from 300 RMB, composite board for sea freight. Crated items with insurance get value compensation.

Cost, transit and declaration

Ceramics are heavy so sea freight by weight is economical. Declare ceramic tableware, porcelain bowl or tea set and keep purchase links.
