Air Freight of Dangerous Goods from China
Air freight may not always be the best choice for dangerous goods shipping from China because of the changes in atmospheric pressure. For this reason, some airlines do not carry certain types of dangerous goods, such as aerosols. However, if your products do not endanger air freight and are time-sensitive, our agents can definitely figure out the best course of action.
We will book the flight with the appropriate cargo airline and ensure that all the requirements are met. You will receive your shipment within 2-10 days depending on the destination.

In addition to all of this, you must consider the time of year.
Naturally, shipping dangerous goods will be a little more expensive than general cargo, but you can contact us to find out the price.

If you have a stable supply chain and wish to import more than 15 CBM of dangerous goods from China, FCL shipping might be for you. We will book any specialized container type that is required for your dangerous goods, and ensure proper loading. Shipping dangerous goods via FCL has many benefits, but you should note that FCL is more expensive than LCL.
LCL is better for startup importers, as it is cheaper. In LCL, your goods will be consolidated and shipped with goods of another importer. IN dangerous goods shipping, this may be tricky—consolidating goods that will not create a dangerous situation together, such as wooden toys and lighters. However, with our experience, we can coordinate everything in the safest way possible. You will only have to pay per CBM, and we will deal with the rest.
