From Shandong Factory to Qingdao Port: How a FENGSONG Order Ships

Every FENGSONG order — a single 1.5 t truck or a mixed container of counterbalance trucks and warehouse equipment — follows the same export sequence. Here is what happens at each stage, and what a buyer can check along the way.

One order, five stages

The sequence below is the standard path for models built in Shandong. Custom masts, attachments or brand colours can add 5–10 working days to the build stage.

1. Deposit and production slot — a 30% T/T deposit confirms the order and starts the 30–45 working day production slot for standard models.
2. Build and configuration — chassis, mast and battery configuration, plus OEM colours and decals where agreed.
3. Test and inspection — a 100% load test on every finished truck.
4. Export packing — sea-freight packing with the mast fixed or detached according to the loading plan, fluids drained as required and the battery disconnected.
5. Loading at Qingdao Port — FOB Qingdao, with a loading plan prepared for each order and photos shared before departure.

Lead time: 30–45 working days after deposit (standard models); sea transit to major ports is typically 15–25 days.

What goes into export packing

Sea freight is hard on a finished truck, so packing is treated as part of production rather than an afterthought. Units are secured for a container crossing, and accessories travel with the machine they belong to.

• Masts fixed or detached according to the loading plan, then re-secured on arrival
• Fluids drained where the carrier requires it
• Battery disconnected for transport
• English manuals and operation videos included with every unit
• The recommended 2–3% spare kit packed with the order to cover the first year

Port, transit and documents

Cargo is loaded at Qingdao Port. Major ports are typically reached in 15–25 days on the water; longer intercontinental lanes are quoted with a confirmed sailing date. Each shipment includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading and Certificate of Origin, plus the declaration documents a customs broker requires.

On arrival the mast is re-secured and the truck is commissioned. Remote video support is available from the export team, and the 12-month / 2,000-hour machine warranty starts from delivery.
