Basketball Shoes Freight
About this Product
Basketball shoes should be shipped in individual protective packaging, such as bubble wrap or foam inserts, and palletized to reduce floor contact. Palletized units should be stacked using standard 48” x 40” pallets and stored within a dry, ventilated warehouse to maintain shoe integrity. Proper handling during loading and unloading is essential to prevent damage and ensure rapid order fulfillment.
