Gal Post Shipping: Ensuring Reliability from Factory to Site

In fencing, agricultural, and infrastructure projects, Galvanized Posts—commonly referred to as Gal Posts—play a foundational role. Their corrosion resistance and structural integrity make them essential for long-term outdoor use. At WIREMESHWORLD, we take pride not only in manufacturing high-quality Gal Posts but also in delivering them efficiently and securely to clients worldwide.

Product Overview: What Are Gal Posts?

Gal Posts are steel fence posts that have been hot-dip galvanized or pre-galvanized, providing a protective zinc coating that resists rust and weathering. These posts are available in a range of profiles such as round, square, or C-section, and are widely used for:

• Boundary fencing

• Livestock enclosures

• Road safety barriers

• Residential and commercial fencing systems

WIREMESHWORLD offers customization in terms of dimensions, pre-drilled holes, and base plate options to suit project-specific needs.

Production to Shipment: Coordinating the Logistics

Shipping Gal Posts requires coordination between production schedules, quality control, and freight logistics. Our process is designed to reduce delays, prevent damage, and keep our clients informed throughout.

1. Final Inspection and Order Review

Every Gal Post order is subjected to a final inspection prior to packaging. This includes checking:

• Zinc coating thickness

• Dimensional accuracy

• Clean welds and surface finish

• Quantity and labeling

We review the purchase order against packing lists to confirm completeness and correctness before proceeding.

2. Packaging for Safe Transit

To protect Gal Posts from mechanical damage or surface abrasion during transport, we follow specific packaging procedures:

• Bundled in uniform stacks: Posts are grouped by size and strapped tightly with galvanized steel bands.

• Edge protection: Plastic or rubber guards are added to prevent denting or deformation.

• Palletized or crated: For export, posts may be loaded onto wooden pallets or metal frames to facilitate forklift unloading.

• Waterproof wrapping: Optional for ocean freight or high-humidity destinations.

Clear labeling includes item codes, order numbers, and destination marks for simplified unloading and sorting.

Shipping Methods and Freight Options

WIREMESHWORLD ships Gal Posts both domestically and internationally. The choice of transport depends on the size of the order, destination, and customer preference.

Common Delivery Methods:

• Full Container Load (FCL) – for high-volume international orders

• Less than Container Load (LCL) – cost-effective for smaller orders

• Flatbed trucks – for regional delivery to project sites

• Intermodal transport – combining rail, truck, and sea freight when needed

Our logistics team handles all freight bookings and coordinates schedules to meet client timelines.

Export Compliance and Documentation

For international shipments, we provide a complete set of export documentation, including:

• Commercial invoice and packing list

• Bill of lading

• Certificate of origin

• Galvanization or material test reports (if required)

• Harmonized code (HS code) details for customs clearance

We stay up to date with export regulations to avoid any delays during customs inspections.

Delivery Support and Customer Communication

Timely updates and proactive communication are essential to smooth delivery. Once your order has been dispatched, our logistics team provides:

• Estimated delivery timelines

• Real-time tracking (where applicable)

• Guidance on unloading and handling at the destination

• Immediate assistance in case of transit-related concerns

We remain in close contact until the order is delivered and accepted.

Tips for Receiving and Handling Gal Posts

To ensure safe and efficient post-delivery handling, we recommend:

• Preparing forklifts or cranes for unloading bundled posts

• Allocating dry storage areas for temporary holding

• Inspecting packages for visible damage before accepting delivery

• Following proper stacking guidelines on-site to prevent bending or surface wear

Our team can provide handling instructions if needed.

At WIREMESHWORLD, we know that delivering quality materials on time is just as important as the product itself. From manufacturing to shipment, our Gal Post logistics process is designed to ensure that every order arrives safely, efficiently, and ready for immediate use.
