With the holidays right around the corner and an over abundance of packages in the shipping stream, make sure you’re packing your gifts and merchandise correctly. The right packaging technique and materials will help protect contents from breaking during shipment.

In our third Packing Tip Episode we review how to properly pack items into a shipping box. We also review the box-in-box packing method for fragile items. Enjoy!

In our second Packing Tip Episode we review How Shipping Boxes are Measured.  We hope this helps everyone choose the box that best fits their needs.  Enjoy!

Okay, Shipping Labels aren’t exactly super heroes but they do help prevent damage to your package during transit by sending clear messages to all potential handlers.  What is heroic is this protection only costs about .02 cents a label.

Our bright red Shipping Labels are available in rolls of 500 labels and are easy to use.  Simply peel and apply.  We stock the following labels with common messages…

• Fragile Handle with Care
• Glass Handle with Care
• This Side Up
• Packing List Enclosed
• Invoice Enclosed
• Made in the U.S.A.

We recommend placing our labels on multiple sides of your package or envelope to ensure that your shipment will arrive safely.  In addition to handing labels, place instructional labels to help customers find Invoices, Packing Lists, or Bill of Ladings.
