GTBuy: Transparently Recording Parcel Weight & Repacking Notes

2026-01-08

In the world of cross-border logistics, clarity is your strongest shield. At GTBuy, we believe transparent documentation of parcel repacking and weight adjustments is crucial for smooth freight verification and robust dispute protection. Here is our detailed workflow.

The Pillars of Transparency

Our process is built on two non-negotiable pillars that ensure every change is visible and accountable:

  • Weight Recording:
  • Repacking Notes:

Step-by-Step Documentation Process

Step 1: Initial State Capture

Upon receiving the original parcel at our consolidation warehouse, we immediately:

  1. Take a clear photo of the original, unaltered
  2. Record the gross weight

Step 2: The Repacking Procedure

If repacking is requested or deemed necessary for safe transit, our staff follows a strict protocol:

  1. Photo Documentation:
  2. Photo A: All original items laid out beside the empty packaging.
  3. Photo B: The new, secure packaging materials (box, mailer, filler).
  4. Photo C: The final, sealed parcel ready for shipment.
  5. Detailed Notes:

Step 3: Final Verification & Logging

After repacking is complete:

  1. The final shipping weight
  2. All photos and notes are permanently attached to the customer's order ID and parcel tracking number in our system.
  3. A summary, including initial weight, final weight, and a link to the repacking notes, is made accessible to the customer in their account portal.
