zero damage during shipping is our goal!

There is very little that is more disappointing than receiving an order that has been damaged during shipping. For almost 12 years we have been perfecting our shipping methods. The result is happy customers that reap the benefits of our packaging knowledge, skills and expertise.

MOISTURE BARRIER

To protect your order from moisture, such as rain or high humidity.

All media (books, CDs, Blu Ray disks, video games) are wrapped with commercial grade transparent polyethylene film (cling wrap) to protect them from moisture during shipping.

PROPER CUSHIONING

To protect your order from physical damage due to rough handling.

We use bubble wrap, foam, air-cellular cushioning (air bags), poly bags, and wrapping and packing papers to protect your precious package from rough handling and/or dropping.

EXTERIOR WRAP

Heavyweight Kraft paper and extra thick, heavy duty grade packing tape provide extra protection.

In all cases, the quality, versatility, and value of the various types of kraft paper, when combined with other materials, can provide extra protection and cushioning for your valuable package.

PACKING TAPE

We don’t skimp of packing tape.

We use TAPEKING™ extra thick, heavy duty grade packing tape.

PROFESSIONAL LABELS

Professional shipping labels help direct your package, and adhesive labels provide handling instructions.

We use clear adhesive shipping pouches for shipping labels and packing slips. And we use adhesive warning and fragile stickers to provide handling instruction for your valuable package.

DROP TESTED

International Safe Transit Association

Our packaging meets International Safe Transit Association (ISTA) drop test requirements.

Corrugated boxes have “burst” and “crush” ratings. Both of these ratings are based on pounds of pressure per square inch. If we are shipping a box that weighs less than about 60 pounds and is not larger than a combined length, width, and depth of 85 inches, we use cartons that have a burst rating of 200 pounds per square inch and a crush rating of at least 48 pounds per square inch. This, combined with the use of proper cushioning and filling materials means that your order should survive a 4-foot drop.
