Taobao Dining Chairs to Australia: Packing, Sea Freight and Delivery

Check packed dimensions before ordering

Ask the seller for the length, width, height, gross weight and carton count after packing.

Stackable or flat-pack timber, metal and upholstered chairs usually use space more efficiently.

How sea freight cost is calculated

Dining chairs are generally better suited to sea freight, with cost affected by volume, cartons, destination and final delivery.

If a table is included, check its long panel separately because oversize pieces can change handling costs.

Furniture inspection and packing

Check colour, quantity, fittings and visible damage at warehouse arrival, and keep screws with the correct carton.

Chair backs, arms, corners and metal legs need cushioning and a strong outer carton.

Australian customs declaration

Use specific names such as dining chair, bar stool and table parts with reasonable quantity and value.

Several identical sets may appear commercial and can require more documentation.

Residential delivery

Provide postcode, phone, floor, lift and access details for Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and other cities.

Upstairs carrying, assembly and old-furniture removal should not be assumed to be included.
