✅ Why Shipping Fragile Items Needs Extra Care

  • Fragile items are prone to breakage, scratches, or malfunction.

  • International transit involves multiple handling points, including customs and hubs.

  • Proper packaging ensures peace of mind and successful delivery.

📦 Tips for Sending Fragile Items Abroad

1️⃣ Use Strong and Sturdy Packaging

  • Choose double-walled corrugated boxes for extra protection.

  • For electronics, use the original manufacturer packaging if available.

  • Avoid old or weak boxes that can collapse during transit.

2️⃣ Cushion Items Properly

  • Wrap items in bubble wrap, foam sheets, or air pillows.

  • Place extra padding around corners and edges.

  • For multiple items, wrap individually to prevent collisions inside the box.

3️⃣ Fill Empty Spaces

  • Use packing peanuts, crumpled paper, or foam inserts to fill gaps.

  • Prevents items from moving around during handling and transport.

4️⃣ Seal Boxes Securely

  • Use high-quality packing tape on all seams and edges.

  • Reinforce corners and areas where the box is likely to be stressed.

5️⃣ Label Fragile Items Clearly

  • Mark boxes as “Fragile,” “Handle with Care,” and “This Side Up”.

  • Proper labeling alerts courier staff to handle the parcel carefully.

6️⃣ Protect Electronics Specifically

  • For electronics, remove batteries if possible and pack separately.

  • Use anti-static bags for sensitive electronic components.

  • Include instruction manuals or protective covers if needed.
