From enquiry to loading
How buying and export works
Tell us the model and destination. We confirm the unit in stock and send its exact FOB price with photos. Inspect by video or third party. We then handle loading, documents (commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, certificate of origin) and loading photos. Destination-specific certificates are prepared according to your country's import rules. FOB is standard; a CIF estimate can be added for your port so you can compare landed cost.
Documents that travel with the machine
Core set
Commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading and certificate of origin.

Loading photos and, on request, the inspection record and machine-plate photos.
Shipping methods
Container
Common for mini and compact machines, often dismantled to fit.
Flat-rack
For mid-size units that fit a rack rather than a closed container.

Roll-on / roll-off for machines driven on and off the vessel.
Bulk / breakbulk
For larger excavators and heavy or oversized units.
Terms, payment and timeline
FOB & CIF
FOB China is standard; a CIF estimate can be added for your port.
Payment
Deposit to hold after you confirm import eligibility; balance by T/T before loading.
Timeline
Inspection, then loading on the booked vessel; ocean transit depends on the route and arrives at your port.
