natasha2106 Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Hi all, I'm hoping someone can answer his question we have some glass and delicate Christmas baubles we are sending in the container next week, is it best for me to wrap these in some bubble wrap before putting into the Christmas box of decorations for the shopping company? As I don't think the shipping company r going to wrap them individually ?? Not sure what other people have done? Thanks natasha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rupert Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Don't you normally keep them wrapped or in boxes? My decorations are wrapped in tissue paper during the year, so they were packed like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest26012 Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 I would def wrap them in bubble wrap beforehand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveNem Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 I would wrap them and maybe put them in a separate box labelled fragile glass on it or something. That way if the box is also inspected by customs they will be aware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cal2 Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 our shipping company marked up a few boxes fragile and were very careful, judt let them know as well, they may want to wrap them themselves for insurance purposes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsmb Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Be carefull with Xmas decs as I had a wooden wand taken from Santa by customs her in Oz plus an ornamental Holly decoration as it was also made of wood -they would have fumigated the items but the cost was far more than the value Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmjg Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 We store all Christmas decorations fully bubble wrapped in a plastic box throughout the year. The packers just put it in a larger box with a few other bits. no bauble breakages at this end. On the paperwork I noted there was no wooden or seeded decorations. This WAS one of the boxes checked. The others checked were shoes and camping equipt. And I think my tools too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
