Proper Parcel Packaging Ensures Its Integrity During Transport. Below are recommendations for appropriate packaging:

Always

  • Use sturdy boxes: Choose corrugated cardboard boxes capable of supporting the weight of other parcels stacked on top.
  • Select the right-sized box for the contents: Boxes that are too large may deform, while overfilled ones may tear.
  • Use quality packaging materials: Protect contents from shocks using packing peanuts, bubble wrap, air pillows, or durable paper.
  • Securely seal the package: Use strong adhesive tape to seal all box seams.
  • Place fragile items in the center: Fragile items should be positioned away from the box walls, with gaps filled with protective materials.
  • Pack scented items in airtight bags: Greasy or strong-smelling substances should be placed in waterproof bags before being packed in the box.
  • Mark parcels with special requirements: For parcels that shouldn’t be flipped or turned, apply appropriate labels such as "This Side Up."
  • Remove old labels when reusing boxes: Ensure there are no old markings that could cause confusion during delivery.

Never

  • Do not use fabric or wrapping paper packaging: These materials can tear during transport.
  • Avoid excessive use of adhesive tape: Parcels may need to be opened for customs inspection, so the packaging should remain accessible for checks.
  • Do not use polyethylene tape or strings for tying: These can damage the packaging or block sorting equipment.
  • Do not ship liquids in unprotected glass bottles: This can damage both the contents and other parcels.
  • Do not rely solely on "Fragile" or "Caution" labels: Such labels do not replace quality packaging and serve only as additional information.

By following these guidelines, you can ensure the safe delivery of your parcel.
