At United Xpress, our objective is to get your shipment safely to its destination in the same condition it was sent. Review our packaging tips before your next shipment — proper packing protects your goods and helps avoid delays at customs or during transit.
Use a sturdy corrugated box with enough room for cushioning — not too large, not too tight.
Wrap fragile items individually and fill empty space with bubble wrap or packing peanuts.
Tape all seams securely. Mark shipper and consignee details clearly on at least two sides.
Double-box delicate goods and mark the outer package as FRAGILE — HANDLE WITH CARE.
Our team can guide you on box size, cushioning, and customs-ready labelling before your next shipment.
