Packing Tips

PEN

Use "Black" permanent ink. Don't ever use whiteboard markers.

RECEIVER

Write complete address in the box and preferably with land line or hand phone number. Please write boldly and legibly on the box. Write the receiver info at least two or more at different sides of the box. Avoid 'P.O. Box' as address and preferably give a residential address.

TAPE

Avoid using gray duct tape or masking tape. Tape the bottom and top flaps of the box properly using packing tape and preferably cover the sides with transparent packing tapes. If using transparent packing tape, write the sender and receiver info on the box first before putting on the tape. No need to tie a rope into your box as we provide free strapping of your boxes.

PLASTIC BAG

Place a heavy duty plastic garbage bag inside the box before putting the contents to protect them from being wet especially during rainy season.

LIQUIDS

Tape tops of all shampoo, conditioners, lotions, perfumes, and other plastic or glass containers that contain fluids. Place said items in a separate plastic bag so that in case of spill they will not damage other items in the box. If possible, avoid sending "FABRIC CONDITIONERS" as they usually breaks off inside the box.

PERISHABLE ITEMS

Do not send perishable items like fresh fruits, meat products and other unpreserved items as they will be spoiled when it reaches the receiver.

TOYS & BATTERIES

Remove batteries from the toys before packing.

POWER

Write a note or put a small padlock in the hole of the plug for small electronic items that requires 110V to prevent receiver from immediately plugging the item as Philippines outlets are usually 220V.

WEIGHT

For easy and safe handling, do not over or under pack the boxes.
