How to Pack a Parcel for Safe Delivery

Proper packing is key to making sure your parcel arrives safely.

Here’s how to do it right:

1. Pick the Right Box

Use a new, double-walled cardboard box that fits the item snugly. Too much empty space can cause movement and damage.

2. Cushion the Contents

Use bubble wrap, foam peanuts or paper to fill any gaps and protect the item. Fragile items need extra padding.

3. Seal Securely

Use strong tape along all seams. Reinforce corners and edges for added strength.

4. Label Clearly

Use a printed label with clear address details. Include a return address and add any necessary handling labels like “Fragile.”

5. Get It Collected

No need to go to the post office. TaurFlex offers parcel collect from home services to make things even easier.
