Always use high quality materials for your package. Consider strength, cushioning, and durability.
Choose boxes made of corrugated cardboard, with good quality outer liners.
Wrap all items separately.
Put goods in the centre of a package ensuring they do not touch the sides. Your item should be well cushioned on all sides.
Make use of cushioning materials, to prevent the contents from moving.

Use strapping, when suitable, as a good way to seal and secure your box.
Use strong tape designed for shipping if strapping is not available.
When re-using a box remove all old labels including any old hazardous material indicators.
Ensure liquids are stored in leak-free containers, packed with a lightweight, strong, internal material (for example, Styrofoam) and sealed with a plastic bag. Always remember that bad packaging may cause damage to other items.
Place powders in strong plastic bags, securely sealed and then packed in a rigid box.
