It’s a wrap

One of the things our clients regularly ask us about it packaging. It’s vital that goods are really well wrapped if they are going to travel round the world changing hands many times en route. The secret is not to cut corners – things can never be overwrapped. Make sure you have a sturdy box, if possible, with bubble wrap around fragile items. Make sure the box is securely taped shut with heavy duty tape, marked ‘Fragile’ if necessary and, most importantly of all, clearly addressed. For larger items which won’t fit in a box make sure there is plenty of heavy duty wrapping material all around – preferably cardboard but bubble wrap if that’s all you’ve got available. Use plenty of tape to hold everything in place and particularly ensure that any protruding edges are well protected. We are always happy to advise if you’re unsure and we’ve usually got some tape on board our vehicles for emergencies.
