Sending your regular products through a range of services can be stressful but the arrival of the online couriers has taken away much of the stress and hassle away from sending parcels to various destinations around the world. Every customer is urged to pack their products carefully to help with the delivering, especially if the package has to travel a long distance. However, the need for careful packing is even more important when it comes to delicate, fragile and expensive goods as this is going to be extremely important that they arrive on time and in the same condition as they were sent in.
Glassware and ceramics are a great example as people may see one in a shop or online and purchase it as a present for a family member, partner or friend. When you come to sending it on you need to make sure that the box that you place it in is not too big or too small. Wrap the item in bubble wrap reasonably tightly but not too tightly then place it in the centre of the box which should not have too much room around it. Once you have placed it in the box, place newspaper cuttings and/or more bubble wrap to hold the product in place, securely tape up the box to make sure that everything fits in perfectly.
Once you are sure that the item is securely packed all you need to do is add a "fragile" sticker on to the box to inform that the box should be treated with extra care. This should give your product of the best chance to arrive in a safe and secure manner when sent with the online couriers. The need to make sure your parcel is suitably packed is important as it may invalidate your insurance meaning you are left with a broken product. It may not be glassware or ceramics, it may be an expensive piece of art or maybe something larger but the idea and method of packing the item is the same as you need to make sure that it is secure within the box.
Art, glassware and ceramics can be expensive products so it is vital that you make sure you send them in the most secure and efficient manner possible and this can be achieved by using the online courier services.
