How to Pack Multiple Items in One Box

How to Pack Multiple Items in One Box

Pick a box sized for all items plus 2" of void fill on every side. Wrap heavier or fragile items individually, nest like items together, and fill every gap — loose items destroy each other in transit. Seal with 2" or 3" carton tape.

Frequently asked

How do I keep items from shifting?

Wrap each fragile individually, pack heaviest on bottom, fill every remaining gap with paper so nothing shifts when you shake the sealed box.

Is there a size limit for one box?

Most carriers cap single-parcel weight at 70 lb (USPS, FedEx Ground over 70 lb needs Freight) and 108" combined L+girth. Split heavy orders across boxes.

Should I double-box fragile items?

Yes for high-value fragiles — an inner box with bubble wrap + a larger outer box with paper fill handles transit impact far better than a single box.

Can I mix heavy and light items?

Put heavy items on the bottom, bubble-wrap light ones, and fill gaps generously. Never leave space above a heavy item — it'll settle and crush lighter items above.
