How to pack a Boxing Day shipment

    Measure and weigh the packed parcel

  • •

    Seal all openings with strong packing tape

  • •

    Remove old labels and barcodes from reused boxes

  • •

    Attach the correct shipping label where required

  • •

    Check the recipient's address and contact details

  • •

    Prepare customs documents for international shipments when necessary
