How to send Pokemon cards and other trading cards in the mail?
- Place the cards into soft plastic protector sleeve: to prevent scratches during transport. You can usually buy plastic trading card sleeves in packs from stationery and craft stores.
- Sending single cards: place the card into a plastic ‘Top loader’ (hard plastic sleeve) to prevent bending during transport.
- Sending a collection: pack the cards in a folder, placing each card into its own pocket.
- Protect with cardboard front and back: either the single card or the whole page of cards in their sleeves.
- Protect with bubble wrap: by wrapping the single card well and securing with tape. If sending a collector’s album, wrap the outside of the album well and secure with tape.
- Place the packaged card into padded envelope or cardboard box, fill any extra space with additional cushioning.
