This article walks through how a 20FT container of <strong>tofu cat litter wholesale<\/strong> is loaded at the Dalian factory, what documents ship with the Bill of Lading, and the average transit times to the five core regions \u2014 South America, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Europe, and Oceania.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Container loading \u2014 what actually happens at Dalian<\/h2>\n<p>A standard 20FT container of <strong>tofu cat litter bulk wholesale<\/strong> loads in 4 stages:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Pre-loading inspection (T\u201324h):<\/strong> empty container is inspected for cleanliness, odour, moisture, and structural integrity. Cat Global rejects any container that has previously carried chemicals, fertilizers, or strong-smelling cargo.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Palletization (T\u201318h):<\/strong> palletization is optional. For chain-store accounts, Cat Global palletizes on fumigated wooden pallets (ISPM 15 compliant) with shrink-wrap. For wholesale bag orders, palletization is skipped to maximize MT per container.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Loading (T\u201312h to T\u20134h):<\/strong> bags are stacked by hand to maximize container fill. A 20FT container holds ~18\u201322 MT of tofu cat litter; a 40HC holds ~26\u201328 MT. Mixed-SKU containers allow up to 4 SKUs per container.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sealing and photos (T\u20132h):<\/strong> container is sealed with a numbered bolt seal; photos of the seal + load + container number are sent to the buyer before vessel departure.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div class=\"callout\">\ud83d\udca1 <strong>Pro tip:<\/strong> Ask your <strong>tofu cat litter supplier<\/strong> to send the seal-number photo and loading photos before ETD.
