Useful Tips

Choose a quality cardboard box considering the strength needed to protect your goods.

Choose a rigid box with flaps, sizing it correctly to its contents, an under filled box is likely to collapse.

Wrap fragile items separately placing them in the centre of the box with adequate cushioning all around. The items should not move once packed.

Use tape or strapping where appropriate to seal and secure your box.

Please contact JCA when shipping liquid for advice on packaging.

Please note that the customer remains responsible for ensuring packing and labelling is correct for transportation.
