How is a machine shipped from China?

By I&R Group, Jiaxing. Reviewed October 3, 2026.

Most machines travel by sea: small ones in a shared container (LCL), larger ones in a full container (FCL), and oversized machines as break-bulk or on a flat rack. The machine is crated to ISPM 15 standards and the container is photographed at loading. Air freight is possible for small, urgent machines but costs far more.

  • LCL for small, FCL for larger, flat rack or break-bulk for oversized.
  • Crated to ISPM 15; container photographed at loading.
  • Air freight only when speed beats cost on a small machine.
