# Packaging Builder

> Work out which mailers, protection and labels you need each month, and what they cost, for the number of orders you ship.

## Baby and children

- Fold the clothes flat and seal them in a clear bag.
- Slide the bag into a grey mailing bag, or box toys and equipment with void fill.
- Weigh it and pick the parcel size that matches.

Avoid: Posting bulky prams and cots in a bag. Box them, or offer collection.

- **[Grey mailing bags, 10 x 14 in, 100 pack](https://sellersetups.com/product/grey-mailing-bags)** (£8 to £13): A light poly bag at 8p to 13p each, for folded clothing. (1 per order)

## Beauty

- Wrap each item in bubble wrap and tape it closed.
- Use a padded envelope for compacts and lipsticks, a small box for glass or sets.
- Fill any gap so nothing moves when you shake the parcel.

Avoid: Glass bottles in padded envelopes. A drop on a sorting conveyor can break them.

- **[Kraft padded envelopes, D/1, 100 pack](https://sellersetups.com/product/padded-envelopes)** (£14 to £22): Bubble-lined envelopes for small, light items. (0.6 per order)

## Books, games and vinyl

- Wrap books and games in a layer of bubble wrap to protect the corners.
- Use a padded envelope for single items, a small box for bundles and box sets.
- Weigh it to the gram and choose the cheapest band it fits.

Avoid: Thin envelopes for hardbacks. The corners push through and arrive dented.

## Coins and banknotes

- Put the coin in a capsule and tape the capsule to a small card, so it can’t slide about.
- Slide the card into a padded envelope.
- Choose a tracked service for any coin you would be upset to lose, and check Royal Mail’s current compensation limits.

Avoid: Loose coins in envelopes. They work their way out through the corners.

## Comics and manga

- Bag and board the issue, then add a second board behind it.
- Slide it into a padded envelope, or a small box for runs and graphic novels.
- Weigh it and choose the smallest band it fits.

Avoid: Envelopes with no stiffener. Sorting machines bend the comic inside.

## Crystals and minerals

- Wrap each piece in tissue, then bubble wrap.
- Put small tumbled stones in a padded envelope and clusters in a box.
- Shake the parcel before you seal it, and add fill if anything moves.

Avoid: Several pieces wrapped together. They knock against each other and chip.

## Electronics and gadgets

- Bag cables and accessories separately, so loose plugs don’t scratch the screen.
- Wrap the device in bubble wrap and box it with padding on all six sides, so it can’t shift when the box is dropped.
- Tape all the box seams, and add a fragile label if your courier allows it.

Avoid: Envelopes for anything with a screen: other parcels pile on top in the post sack and can crack it.

## Food and drink

- Seal drinks and anything that could leak in a plastic bag.

## Football shirts and memorabilia

## Halloween and seasonal

- Wrap the piece in tissue and close it with a sticker.

- Box figures in a single-wall cardboard box, and send single cards in a rigid card mailer as a Large Letter.

## Sporting goods

- Wrap each piece in bubble wrap, with extra round handles and rims.

## Toys and collectibles

- Bag loose small parts so nothing goes missing.
- Wrap boxed items and put them in an outer box with padding on every side.

## Trading cards

- Sleeve the card, slide it into a toploader and seal it in a team bag.
- Put it in a board-backed mailer with a strip of tape over the toploader’s open end.
- Weigh it on the pocket scale and send it as a Large Letter if it’s under the limit.

## Trainers

- Wrap the original shoe box in bubble wrap.
- Put it in a double-wall outer box and fill the gaps.
- Tape every seam and put the label on the outer box only.

Avoid: Labels on the shoe box. Buyers pay for that box, and a label damages it.

## Vintage clothing

- Fold the garment around a sheet of tissue and close it with a sticker.
- Slide it into a grey mailing bag and press the air out before sealing.
- Weigh it and choose the smallest parcel size it fits.

## Wholesale, job lots and pallets

- Pick the unit by its shelf code and check it against the listing.
- Put soft items in a mailing bag, and boxed or fragile stock in a box with paper fill.
- Weigh it and buy the cheapest band it fits.

Avoid: Oversized boxes for small items. A bigger box can push the parcel into a dearer size band.
