Parcel packaging

Proper packaging of the shipment is key to its safe and successful transportation. Below are some important points to consider when packing your shipment:

PARCELS (BOXES)

Use appropriate high-quality material

• Ensure that the box matches the contents of the shipment.
• It must be sufficiently strong and sturdy to provide support to the transported contents.

Choose the right size of the box

• The box should not be too small to avoid overcrowding of the contents.
• The box should not be too large to prevent excessive empty space around the transported item.

Fill the empty space inside

• The contents being transported must be secured within the box using protective material.
• Prevent items from moving within the box, especially during longer shipments.

Secure fragile items

• Fragile items should be individually wrapped and surrounded by protective layers.

Close the box properly

• Seal the vulnerable areas of the box, ideally in the shape of an "H".
• Use strong and high-quality adhesive tape.

Reinforce heavier boxes with straps

• If you have heavier boxes, secure them with straps.
• Ensure that the box and its contents form a strong and stable unit.

Clearly label each box

• Place the shipping label on the top side of the box.
• Remove previous labels and information about previous deliveries.

PALLETS

Use quality and undamaged pallets

• The pallet must be strong, high-quality, and provide support to the transported cargo.

Arrange the cargo on the pallet in a stable and symmetrical manner

• Distribute the boxes evenly across the entire surface of the pallet.

Secure the cargo and the pallet

• Fasten the cargo with straps.
• Wrap the pallet with stretch film to prevent movement or collapse of the goods.

Ensure stackability

• Strive to make the pallets stackable.

Properly label the pallets

• Place the transport label on the side of the pallet.
• Handwrite the recipient's address on the pallet.

By following these guidelines, you will ensure proper packaging and labeling of the shipment for its safe and successful transportation.
