The VigorBuy Packaging Protocol

Step 1: Comprehensive Photographic Documentation

Before sealing any package, document these crucial elements:

  • Product Condition:
  • Packaging Layers:
  • Inner Packaging:
  • Final Package:

Tip: Include a timestamp and shipping label in at least one photo for verification.

Step 2: Detailed Spreadsheet Documentation

Your shipping spreadsheet should include these critical columns:

Order ID Packaging Method Materials Used Photo Reference Package Dimensions Shipping Date
VB-2024-5876 Double-box with bubble wrap cushioning Outer: 200# CBT, Inner: 32 ECT, Void fill: Air pillows /photos/VB-2024-5876-packaging.zip 18×12×10 in 2024-11-15

Step 3: Protective Packaging Methods

Fragile Items Protection

Use at least 2 inches of cushioning material on all sides. Consider corner protectors for rectangular items and suspension packaging for extremely fragile goods.

Moisture Protection

For weather-sensitive shipments, use water-resistant liners and desiccant packets. Document these precautions in your spreadsheet.

Weight Distribution

Ensure heavy items are centered and supported. Document the placement of internal bracing and weight distribution methods.
