How to Transport Sports Equipment Safely
Packaging Sports Equipment for Transit
Pack sporting goods to prevent movement and impact damage. Use padded bags or double-walled boxes for items like tennis rackets or golf clubs. For bikes, remove pedals/handlebars and use a bike box or crate; deflate tyres slightly. Long items (surfboards, skis, snowboards) should be in padded tube/board bags and reinforced at nose/tail. Items over 25 kg or awkwardly shaped should be palletised. Parcels must not exceed 5 m (500 cm) in length; anything over 25 kg may require pallet/tail-lift handling. See full packaging requirements.
Labelling and Documentation for Sports Equipment
After booking with Transdirect, you’ll be supplied with shipping labels for your items. Each item is issued a unique label, which must be securely fixed to each item. If labels are not affixed correctly, a Futile Collection fee may apply. For international shipments, please ensure all appropriate customs documentation has been supplied.
