Import Tips
• Label packages clearly as 'spring-type' to distinguish from miter clothespins during customs inspection
• Test for binder content if wood appears compressed to rule out fuel pellet misclassification
• Bulk import in original manufacturer packaging helps prove commercial value per gross
