Need to send a heavy parcel?

There was once a time where looking for a courier to deliver a heavy parcel was a daunting and frustrating process. As you probably know, each courier company has limits on the parcel weight and dimensions of each parcel that they can accept. Large parcel delivery could also be pricey with extra costs if you would like to track your parcel or ensure the delivery on the next day.

Sending a heavy parcel used to be a complicated process of arranging a quote, delivery date, and collection time over the phone. It also used to be challenging to find parcel delivery courier services that would ensure protection during the shipment no matter the parcel weight and length.

The good news is you don’t have to spend hours searching for a courier that will deliver your large parcel at a reasonable price anymore. Packlink services make sending a heavy parcel or bulky item quick, easy, and affordable.

How to pack your large parcel?

Once everything is ready to send heavy items, make sure to pack your parcel properly so it wouldn’t get damaged. If you have arranged delivery with pallets, the large parcel should be securely attached to the pallet.

As extra protection on a pallet, you can add paperboards around your parcel or wrap it in a film. Some delivery companies have guidelines that require you to strap your heavy items to the pallet and protect the parcel with cardboards.

In the case of parcel delivery in a box, you should choose durable packaging for your heavy items. Additionally, you can add wrapping around the parcel, so items wouldn’t move in the box. And if you still want to improve the protection of your large parcel delivery, put it into another box.

Once everything is ready for delivery, try to shake your parcel a little. If you hear movement inside, your heavy items might not be secured well, and they might be damaged in a box during delivery.

If you have further hesitations, you can always consult with a large parcel courier companies about your parcel packaging requirements.

Packlink offers real-time tracking from the point of collection to the delivery to your final destination.
