A Complete Guide to Packing International Parcels Securely

Published on June 25, 2026 | By Aerofly Editorial

Proper packing is one of the most important steps in international shipping. Long transit distances and multiple sorting hubs mean your package will be handled several times before final delivery. Follow these guidelines to pack your items securely:

1. Use a Sturdy Outer Box

Always use a high-quality, double-walled corrugated box. Avoid reused boxes that have lost their structural strength, and select a size that fits your items with space for cushioning.

2. Wrap Individual Items

Wrap each item in bubble wrap or foam sheets, especially fragile goods, electronics, or glassware. Place heavier items at the bottom of the box to prevent crushing.

3. Fill Empty Space

Use packing peanuts, crumpled paper, or air pillows to fill any empty space in the box. This prevents items from moving and shifting during transit.

4. Seal with Quality Tape

Use heavy-duty shipping tape (avoid masking or cellophane tape). Seal all seams using the 'H' taping method along the edges of the box.
