NATURAL VENTURES GUIDE TO SHIPPING BATTERIES
•Tightly wrap and secure your pallets.
•Complete loads are easiest, most cost effective & safest.
•Invest in a scale & train your staff on how to create packing lists with as much pertinent information as possible.
•Adding your batteries on top of existing loads is a good way to move your batteries for next to nothing butut make sure the carrier represents them as such!
•Many people will pay well and take only some batteries, but that leaves you with having to dispose of low value batteries that may end up costing you to ship. Consider finding a buyer willing to pay for all batteries to help offset the shipping cost of low value units.
•Have realistic expectations. Burnt and damaged batteries will have very little value.
•Just like with lead acid batteries, put a layer of cardboard in between layers on the bottom and on top.
