Shipping Moving Blankets from China to USA by Sea Freight DDP

Customer Source: DFH Logistics website inquiry

Customer Background:

The customer was a US-based trader who was importing moving blankets from China for the first time. Since this was his first large-volume import project, he was looking for a reliable freight forwarder that could provide a complete shipping solution.

Shipping Challenge 

Before working with DFH Logistics, the customer faced several challenges: 

• First-Time Import Experience: The customer was unfamiliar with China import procedures, including shipping arrangements, customs clearance, and final delivery.
  

• Need for a Complete Shipping Solution: The customer needed a reliable and cost-effective freight forwarder to handle the entire import process.
  
  

• Limited Factory Support: The supplier was only responsible for loading the goods into containers and delivering them to Tianjin Port, but the customer was not familiar with how to handle the following import procedures.
  

• High Tariff Concerns: As a textile product, moving blankets are subject to US import duties and Section 301 tariffs. The customer was concerned about unexpected costs and needed better cost control.
