Choosing Protective Materials for Safe Delivery
When requesting repacking, you can often select or recommend specific materials. Here’s a guide to common options:
Bubble Wrap
The go-to choice for cushioning. Ideal for electronics, figurines, and any item with hard surfaces. Provides excellent shock absorption.
Foam Pouches or Sheets
Great for wrapping items prone to scratches, like screens or polished furniture. Offers superior surface protection.
Packing Peanuts / Air Cushions
Perfect for filling voids in a box to prevent items from shifting during transit. Essential for irregularly shaped objects.
Corrugated Cardboard Inserts
Used to reinforce box walls, create compartments, or provide a rigid buffer for extremely fragile items like glass panels.
High-Quality, Double-Wall Cartons
For heavy or very delicate items, standard boxes may not suffice. Requesting a reinforced or double-wall shipping box adds crucial strength.
Fragile Tape & Labels
Clearly marked "Fragile" tape and warning labels alert handlers to exercise extra care with your package.
