Shipping Over 25 Tonnes of Stone Statues, Garden Features and Teak Furniture
RIM Cargo, an experienced freight forwarder in Bali, recently managed the international shipping of over 25 tonnes of stone statues, garden features, and teak furniture to Brisbane, Australia.
The shipment involved collecting goods from multiple suppliers across Bali, consolidating cargo at our Kerobokan warehouse, preparing specialised timber crating, managing Australian biosecurity compliance, and loading a 40ft High Cube container for sea freight transportation.

Cargo Consolidation and Protective Packing
The shipment consisted of heavy stone products and handcrafted wooden furniture sourced from multiple suppliers throughout Bali.
All items were transported to RIM Cargo's warehouse in Kerobokan for inspection, consolidation, and export preparation.
Our warehouse team verified that kiln-dried packing timber had moisture levels below 12% before constructing heavy-duty ISPM 15 timber crates. Specialised protective packing was used to secure heavy stone items and minimise movement during transportation.

Australian Customs and Biosecurity Compliance
Freight forwarding from Bali to Australia requires careful preparation to meet Australian import and biosecurity requirements, particularly for natural stone and wooden products.
RIM Cargo coordinated the necessary export documentation and compliance procedures, including:
ISPM 15 Timber Crating: Custom protective wooden packaging prepared to international phytosanitary standards.
Methyl Bromide Fumigation: Certified treatment and documentation for Australian biosecurity requirements.
V-Legal/SVLK Certification: Indonesian timber legality documentation for wooden furniture and products.
Stone Surveyor Inspections: Official Indonesian inspections for exported stone products.
Export Documentation: PEB export declarations, Certificate of Origin, and Asbestos Declarations.
These procedures were coordinated through our Bali warehouse before the container departed for Australia.

40ft High Cube Container Loading and Shipping
With over 25 tonnes of mixed cargo, careful weight distribution and container space utilisation were essential.
Our experienced warehouse team arranged the stone statues, garden features, and wooden furniture to achieve 100% container capacity, while maintaining secure positioning and balanced weight distribution.
Once loading and export preparations were completed, the 40ft High Cube container was transported overland from Bali to Tanjung Perak Port in Surabaya for international sea freight shipment to the Port of Brisbane.
