Wrap Fitting Service

Packing Guidelines

- Always use a strong rigid carton.

- Use a carton made of high quality corrugated cardboard preferably double walled to ensure strength, durability and protection.

- Pack each drum in a seperate box of an appropriate size.

- If your drums have been disassembled, pack them inside each other with the hardware bagged in groups for each individual drum

- If the carton is underfilled use padding materials such as polystyrene chips and shredded paper to fill it out.

- Wrap all items separately within the carton with protective cushioning such as bubble wrap.

- If possible ensure no items are touching the walls of the carton.

- Seal the carton with strong tape designed for shipping – everyday sellotape is not sufficient.

- Ensure the carton is sealed securely with the flaps taped down along the middle and on both ends over the corners.

- When putting the carton together use strong staples or tape to ensure the base is secure and will not come open in transit.

- ‘Fragile’ and ‘Handle with Care’ labels are no substitute for good packaging – they are for information only.

- If you can hear or feel the contents of the carton moving inside then they are not packed properly.
