What to pack clothes in for shipping? The best ways to prepare a parcel of trousers
Wondering how to pack clothes for shipping? There are several methods for doing so. Clothes are generally put into cardboard boxes, paper envelopes or foil envelopes, i.e. courier foil envelopes with a flexible and robust structure . This third solution is very practical as it has waterproof properties. Thus, the trousers in the foil pack will be well protected from moisture and will not get wet during transport.
Although foils for sending clothes work very well, large paper envelopes are just as popular a choice. Whether you are sending one pair of trousers or several garments, the choice of packaging is very important. Large foil packs, cardboard boxes or paper envelopes should be seal tightly . To further protect the inside of the parcel, you can pack the trousers in an extra bag and only then place the whole thing in the final packaging.
It is also worth paying attention to the appropriate filling and securing the parcel . What might be useful? Bubble paper, bags of rising foam and polystyrene filler. With these materials, you will fill the excessive space in the package, which will prevent the trousers from moving freely and protect them from rain and possible flooding. If you use a pack that fits the trousers perfectly, the fillers are not necessary.
Want to be more eco-friendly? Use the undamaged packaging you already have at home . This gives you the assurance that it is the right fit, plus you are making a positive contribution to the environment. 
Ways to send a parcel of trousers
You already know how to pack clothes for shipping, but do you know the ways to send such a package? Clothing packages can be handed directly into the hands of the courier or you can choose an indirect method - the shipment by Parcel Machine® or Parcel Point .
In the first case, you need to order the shipment service from home. To carry out this task, you must log on to the service Parcel Manager and fill in all the necessary information about the parcel. Once you have placed an order for the parcel to be collected from your home or any other address, all you have to do is wait for the courier to arrive at the appointed time.
The second solution - sending at a point or via an InPost parcel machine - is a much greener option. If you bring the parcel to the collection point yourself, the courier will not have to drive to your home. Thus, his route will be shortened and he will therefore use less fuel. So the more people who use Parcel Post, the better for the environment. An InPost machine is certainly in your area - you can visit her on your way to the shop, work or a meeting.
How do I send a parcel of trousers via Parcel Machine? To begin with, you need to order the sending service. This can be done in the InPost Mobile application (with the option of remote box opening) or via the Fast Shipment website (without registration) . In each case, the appropriate package size must be selected and all the necessary information must be indicated. This includes the contact details of the sender and the recipient.
When ordering a parcel service, you must also indicate how the courier is to deliver the parcel. The delivery can be made to a specified address (e.g. the addressee's home) or to a collection point. In the latter case, it is advisable to check where the recipient has his or her nearest Parcel Machine and specify this as the place of delivery.
Finally, it remains to pay for the shipment and go with the parcel and the sending code to any machine. Entering the numbers on the machine's screen or scanning the QR code will cause the Parcel Machine to open the box of your choice. Place the parcel with the trousers to be shipped in it, close the door, confirm the shipment and you're done!
