Station Wagons

Visit the HTS official website for detailed guidelines on classifying and shipping station wagons, ensuring compliance with international trade regulations.

UNIS provides access to HTS codes for accurate classification of station wagons, streamlining customs processes and reducing shipping delays.

* **Storage Size/Dimensions:** Minimum 150 square feet, 20ft x 7.5ft area, Height clearance: 9 feet. Allow for at least 2ft of side access around each wagon. * **Storage Conditions:** Dry storage is essential. The area must be well-ventilated to prevent dust accumulation and potential mildew growth. Ensure the floor is level and clean. Avoid direct sunlight exposure to minimize fading. * **Special Handling:** Station wagons are considered fragile. Each wagon should be stored on a pallet with 4ft x 4ft of clearance around it. Utilize protective padding – blankets or foam – around each wagon during storage. Consider using straps to secure wagons to the pallet to prevent movement. * **Stacking/Shelving:** Pallet storage is the recommended method. Shelving is not suitable due to the wagon's size and weight. Stacking pallets vertically is permissible, but limit to a maximum of 3 pallets high for stability. * **Access Requirements:** Loading dock with a 12ft wide x 12ft deep bay is required. The warehouse door should be at least 10ft wide for easy access. A clear aisle space of 8ft is needed for forklift maneuvering. Ensure adequate lighting within the storage area.

Use pallets with 12" clearance, secure straps, and anti-corrosion padding. Maintain ventilation to prevent moisture buildup and ensure stable loading.

Pack station wagons on reinforced pallets with 12" clearance for movement. Include weatherproof covers and secure fastening to prevent shifting during transit.

Require loading docks with 14" clearance and clear aisles for equipment. Use GPS tracking for real-time monitoring of high-value shipments.

Shipping costs depend on storage space, logistics complexity, and compliance with international regulations. Optimize routes and packaging to reduce expenses.
