Packaging Tips Select a box that is strong enough to protect the contents. Leave space for cushioning inside the carton. Cushion package contents with shredded or rolled newspaper, bubble wrap, or Styrofoam peanuts. Plain air-popped popcorn is also good for cushioning; it''s inexpensive and environmentally friendly. Pack tightly to avoid shifting. Always use coldseal tape that is designed for shipping, such as pressure-sensitive coldseal tape, nylon-reinforced kraft paper tape, or glass-reinforced pressure-sensitive tape. Do not use wrapping paper, string, masking tape, or cellophane tape. Put the delivery and return addresses on one side only of the package. Suggestion: Place a return address label inside the package. Stuff glass and fragile hollow items, like vases, with newspaper or packing material to avoid damage due to shock. When mailing framed photographs, take the glass out of the frame and wrap it separately. Remove batteries from toys. Wrap and place them next to the toys in the mailing box. Take packages that weigh at least 1 pound into the post office for mailing.

Obtain Express Mail and Priority Mail boxes, envelopes, and tubesPurchase packaging products, including tape, envelopes, padded bags, boxes, mailing tubes, and cushioning material, from your post office. Some locations offer decorative boxes and expander packs that are suitable for mailing gifts. Length divided by height is less than 1.3 or more than 2.5 inches. A surcharge, in addition to the applicable postage and fees, is applied to each piece of nonstandard size mail coldseal for two reasons: it compensates the Postal Service for the added cost of manually handling nonstandard mail, and it promotes the design and use of mail that can be processed mechanically.

Mailing Tubes Great for shipping or storing maps, blueprints or other documents that are best kept unfolded. We offer kraft tubes, white tubes, snap seal tubes and square tubes. Boxes Box dimensions are inside dimensions and stated in the coldseal (L x W x H) sequence. Length (L) is the larger of the two dimensions. (L x W) is the measurement for the open top of the box. Width (W) is the smaller dimensions of the coldseal open top. The height (H) or depth is coldseal the dimension that measures the inside height or depth of the box. Packaging Supplies Company''s stocks RSC type containers.
