HOW TO PACK
How to pack ski equipment for shipping internationally
If you are shipping your skis internationally together with boots, poles, helmet and goggles, protect all the gear separately to ensure safe transport and delivery at the hotel or resort.
- Detach removable parts and wrap them separately in bubble wrap.
- Use stretch wrap or foam sheets to protect skis and poles. Pack the equipment in a padded ski bag.
- Connect two or three smaller cardboard boxes to make one long box for your skis. Alternatively, you can order ski-sized boxes from courier websites or get them at sports shops.
- Use corrugated cardboard to protect the exterior.
- Place your equipment in the ski box. Fill empty spaces with padding materials such as crumpled paper or ski clothes.
- Close and seal the box with adhesive tape.

What is the fastest Eurosender service for urgent ski delivery?

Can you ship skis in a ski bag?
When sending ski equipment abroad by post or courier, you a can use a padded ski bag as initial packaging. Just make sure you pack everything inside an appropriately-sized cardboard box before shipping to minimise the risk of damage. The standard form of packaging in shipping is a cardboard box and the courier driver may reject a ski bag on the grounds of insufficient packaging if it is not packed inside a box. You can follow our packaging instructions to help you get ready.
How do I get a box to ship ski gear overseas?
You can find cardboard boxes and other useful packaging materials for your ski gear in most sports or hardware stores. Alternatively, you can order ski-sized boxes from courier websites. New or used cardboard boxes can be used as long as they are in good condition. Please consider the weight of the content when selecting your packaging materials to ensure the ski gear is well protected for shipping overseas. The cardboard box needs to be sturdy and all materials should be able to withstand heavy items.
Is there insurance for sending ski equipment abroad by post or courier?
Almost every service booked on the Eurosender platform is covered by basic insurance, which is already included in the price. Additional insurance is available to purchase during the booking process at low prices. Read more about the shipping insurance options Eurosender offers for sending your ski gear overseas.
