Step 3 – Prepare your shipment for delivery

Put all your items into one box and wrap each item separately from the other so that they don’t break during the shipping process.
Wrap fragile items in bubble wrap or foam rubber and place them inside boxes with packing paper before putting them into another box for shipping purposes.
Ensure there are no sharp objects inside the package as they might cut open the cardboard material during the transportation process.
