How to Package a Return

 

To ensure your return arrives safely and swiftly at our warehouse, it's important to package your parcel correctly. Here's a step-by-step guide.

 

1. Choose the Right Packaging


  • Box or Bag? Use a sturdy box for heavy or fragile items like pumps. Lighter items may be fine in padded envelopes or mailing bags.
  • Reuse or Buy New? Recycled boxes are acceptable—just ensure they're strong and in good condition.
  • Size Matters: The box should fit the item snugly without excessive empty space.
  • Remove Old Labels: Ensure no old barcodes or addresses remain visible.

Heavy items may require double-boxing for added protection.

 

2. Wrap Your Items Securely

 

  • Bubble Wrap: Ideal for heavy or delicate products. Use at least 8–10 cm of padding.
  • Paper Wrap: Only suitable for very lightweight, non-fragile items.

Couriers don’t recognise "fragile" stickers—pack to protect regardless of labels.
 

 

3. Fill the Empty Space

 
 

Prevent movement during transit by filling gaps in the box:

  • Reused original packing (e.g., Insta Pack foam)
  • Bubble wrap
  • Scrunched-up paper (light items only)
  • Cardboard layers
  • Foam chips or shredded card (not suitable for heavy items)

Place heavier items at the bottom and centre the contents for balance.
 

 

4. Include Your Return Details

Place a note inside the parcel with the following:

  • Your name and address
  • Phone number
  • Original order number
  • RMA number

 

5. Seal It Securely

 

Once packed:

  • Use strong packing tape
  • Tape across all seams and edges
  • Reinforce corners and flaps

Flatten and tape down anything that sticks out to avoid damage on conveyor belts.
 

 
 
 

6. Label Your Parcel Properly

 

  • Affix the shipping label to the top centre
  • Secure all edges of the label with tape
  • Write your return address on the back and label it clearly
