The Best Ways To Protect Your Products While in Transit Posted on July 20, 2021July 20, 2021 By Leigh Langston If your packages arrive at their destination crushed or damaged, it will take time and effort to issue a refund or send another product. Additionally, you would need to learn how to file a freight claim to obtain payment for your damaged products in this situation. To ensure your products arrive in pristine condition, you need to provide proper packaging for rough journeys. Here are some of the best ways to protect your products while in transit. Choose the Right Size Package One of the best ways to protect your products while in transit is to choose the right size package. If you use a large package for a small, fragile item, it may roll around inside the box and break. Also, since larger packages use more material, they are usually more expensive. To save money and ensure your products arrive safely, remember to choose the right size package for your items. Use Fillers Fillers include packing peanuts, air pillows, Styrofoam sheets, foam blocks, and more. These fillers prevent your items from moving around inside the box during the trip. If you need to keep your items in place, then fillers are your best option. Add Labels Labeling your boxes as fragile is a great way to ask your delivery drivers to handle the box with care. Since the people involved with the delivery may not know that there are fragile products inside the box, these labels are a quick and useful way to communicate with delivery people. If your package contains hazardous materials, it’s best to place a label on the box for that as well. Purchase Strong, Adhesive Tape Many people underestimate the power of strong, adhesive tape. Adhesive tape is great for keeping all your items inside the box throughout long trips. Even if you have a durable box, your items will become lost or damaged without the use of quality adhesive tape.
