What Packaging Material Do You Need to Mail Jewellery?
  • Scissors
  • Bubble wrap
  • Packaging tape
  • Polystyrene Chips
How to Pack Your Jewellery

Find 2 boxes, one larger, sturdy box and one smaller box that comfortably fits inside the other. Never use envelopes or jiffy bags and use a new box if possible. Fill the smaller box with plenty of packaging material, place your jewellery on top of this material and place more on top. Close the lid and give the box a good shake, if you can hear movement then you need to add more packaging material until the box makes no sound when shaken. Now add packaging material to the bottom of your larger box. Add the smaller box and follow the same procedure as above. Give it a shake and add more packaging material until it is silent when you give it a shake.

Write your tracking code on the box and make sure there is are no visible references to its contents. When sealing your boxes, use reinforced gummed tape. This helps to prevent any attempts to get into your parcel.



Buy damage/loss cover for your parcel

If you are shipping a few different pieces of jewellery, consider sending them in separate parcels. If your shipment is valuable, you do not want to run the risk of losing it all. Arrange a delivery date well ahead of time with your recipient. This will ensure that they will be ready to sign for the delivery and you won’t have to go through the ordeal of rearranging and rebooking the delivery.

Take pictures of the packaged jewellery, the packaging of the box and the main box itself. This will prove you have taken every measure to keep your shipment safe should you need to claim on insurance. Ask your recipient to take the same pictures when the parcel arrives also. Do not use a drop collection or drop delivery service, only use a collection and delivery service. Schedule deliveries so they do not sit in a depot during weekend or bank holidays. Generally aim to have your parcel to arrive on a Wednesday. When your collecting courier arrives to pick up your parcel, ask him to sign your shipper’s confirmation document. This is proof that the parcel has been collected and will be used in the event of an insurance claim.
