Preparation Before Sauna Delivery

Choose the Right Way of Sauna Delivery? Integral Package Sauna Vs. Flat Pack Sauna

Saunas delivery are mainly packed in two ways: integral package sauna and flat pack sauna. Choose the appropriate packaging and transportation method according to the size, shape, and function of the sauna.

Integral Package Sauna

Integral package sauna means that the sauna is fully assembled at the sauna manufacturing factory and transported with its complete structure.
The advantages of integral package sauna are as follows:
No need for secondary assembly: Integral package sauna completely maintains the structure of the sauna. When the sauna arrives at the destination, it can be placed intact where you want without secondary assembly. This method also avoids after-sales problems caused by errors in self-assembly by customers.
Avoid missing parts: After the sauna is installed in the manufacturing factory, the missing of sauna parts can be avoided, which greatly guarantees the quality of the product. It also reduces the freight and time of sending parts again.
Although integral package sauna can solve the installation problem and better ensure the integrity of the sauna structure. But it is undeniable that integral package sauna has disadvantages.
Spend more transportation costs: Due to the large volume of packaged transport, the transportation occupies a huge space, which requires more transportation costs. Long-distance transportation may cost more.
The integral package sauna has a certain volume and weight, which makes it difficult to load and unload.
From the above analysis, integral package sauna is suitable for small integrated saunas (portable saunas or mini saunas, etc.).

Flat Pack Sauna

Flat pack sauna means breaking down the sauna into multiple modules and then packing them.
It has the following advantages. Flat pack sauna adopts a modular design, which allows the sauna to be packed flat and stacked, reducing the occupied area, saving sauna delivery space, greatly reducing sauna delivery costs, and is suitable for large-scale transportation or export.
Flat pack sauna is suitable for various scenarios, especially sea transportation and various long-distance truck transportation. It is very convenient and fast to choose flatbed transportation to transport saunas to Europe and the United States.
Of course, flat pack sauna also has disadvantages. Flat pack splits the sauna into modules for transportation. After receiving the goods, customers need to assemble them by themselves, which takes time and requires simple hands-on skills.
For saunas with large capacity and volume, it is recommended to use flat pack.

Packing of Sauna Room

Before sauna delivery, you need to take protective measures for the sauna room parts. Use waterproof plastic film to protect the sauna room to prevent moisture and humid environment from affecting the quality of wood.

When transporting the sauna room on a flatbed, you need to place the various module parts of the sauna room according to the size of the wooden cabinet, and mark each module of the sauna room to facilitate customers to install according to the number.

And use foam to fill the parts of each cabinet to reduce the vibration during transportation, so as to avoid damage due to collision during transportation, especially fragile items such as glass.
Check the cabinet to see if the cabinet is packed firmly and whether any parts are missing.
Mark the installed cabinet and take photos to facilitate subsequent tracking and installation.

Things to Note When Shipping a Sauna Room

After preparing the sauna room for shipping, there are still some things to note.

Choose a Reliable Logistics Company

Choose a reliable logistics company. They need to have professional knowledge and literacy, can help solve the transportation and customs clearance of goods, and at the same time they need to have high-quality services, always pay attention to the transportation of goods, and be familiar with international trade regulations.

Buy Cargo Insurance

During transportation, all kinds of unexpected things will happen. Buying cargo insurance for goods can reduce losses when accidents occur. It is worth noting that choosing cargo insurance requires understanding the scope and liability of insurance.

Delivery and Acceptance

Choose a suitable logistics company to help complete customs and various documents for customs clearance. After the goods arrive, use a forklift to unload them. After the customer receives the sauna room, wait for the customer to accept it. The customer confirms that there are no errors in the order and the product is not damaged.
The customer’s acceptance does not mean that the transaction is completed. If the customer has any questions about the installation, it is necessary to provide the user with installation instructions and technical support in a timely manner.
