Case Overview: Ms. Ru entrusted Seapoe Relo to ship newly purchased furniture from Shenzhen to Tokyo, Japan.

Last year, Ms. Ru bought a new home in Tokyo, Japan. In search of soft furnishings for her new home, she visited almost every furniture store in Tokyo but could not find furniture that was both reasonably priced and to her liking. As Ms. Ru prefers modern Chinese-style furniture, she decided to simply buy it in China—after all, the price, styles, and quality far surpass most furniture stores in Tokyo.

After purchasing the furniture, Ms. Ru found Seapoe Relo through a friend's recommendation to handle the shipment. Since Ms. Ru had 73 pieces of furniture and items of various sizes, Seapoe recommended full container load (FCL) shipping for greater safety—no need to wait for consolidation, and the transit time would be shorter. Moreover, December to March is the off-season for ocean freight, making it more cost-effective. Ms. Ru gladly agreed.

Seapoe offers 30 days of free storage and has its own warehouse in Guangzhou, so all furniture and items could be sent to Seapoe's Guangzhou warehouse gradually for collection. Seapoe also helped with unpacking, photographing, and inspection, and replaced furniture that did not meet shipping standards with international transport packaging that qualifies for duty-free conditions. Once all the furniture arrived, it was ready for shipment!

After more than a month at sea, Ms. Ru received all her furniture and items in perfect condition. Afterwards, Ms. Ru shared the receiving process she filmed at home with the Seapoe specialist and praised them, saying, "The whole process went very smoothly! The delivery staff were very professional—they carefully laid down carpet and wall protection, disassembled and placed all the furniture and items exactly where I specified, and even helped take away all the packaging waste before leaving! If I need shipping again, I'll definitely come back to you!"
