Packaging and Protection
School desks require standardized packaging before leaving the factory; components such as tabletops, legs, and frames are typically packaged either separately or as a complete unit. Critical areas must be protected with foam, cardboard, or bubble wrap to prevent scratches, impacts, or deformation during transit. Metal parts also require anti-rust treatment to prevent quality degradation caused by moisture.
Loading and Unloading
Desks should be handled with care during loading and unloading to avoid drops or heavy pressure. Stacking must follow the instructions indicated on the packaging; dragging or inverting the items is strictly prohibited. For bulk shipments, stacking arrangements should be carefully planned to prevent structural deformation or damage to connectors caused by crushing.
Transportation
The interior of the transport vehicle must be kept dry and clean, with adequate measures taken to protect against rain and moisture. Desks must be securely fastened within the cargo area to prevent shifting or collisions caused by bumps during transit. For long-distance transport, exposure to high temperatures or direct sunlight should be avoided to prevent compromising material properties or surface coatings.
Inspection Upon Arrival
Upon arrival at the destination, the desks should be unpacked and inspected promptly to check for damage, missing parts, or deformation. Any issues discovered should be documented and reported to the supplier immediately to ensure that subsequent installation and usage are not affected.
