This packing advice is designed to show you how to pack your return safely in order to avoid any damages to your property. Appropriate packaging is particularly important with parcel shipments, since the packages have to withstand a theoretical fall from (approximately) one meter in height.
Please take the time to read these packing tips carefully. It’s worth the effort – to ensure your return arrives safely with us.
