Step 2: Prepare your package

Select an appropriate package
Use a padded envelope (Jiffy bag) or a cardboard postal box depending on the weight and volume of your items.
- Ensure that the weight of your items is not over the maximum weight allowed by your Jiffy bag.
- Pack any sharp object in a hard box for security.

Close your Package Securely
Ensure that your package is tightly packed and sealed securely for shipment.
It is highly recommended to close your package with special packing tape.
If you use a Jiffy Bag: Apply a strip of packing tape over the adhesive strip of the envelope.
If you use a box: Apply packing tape across all seams on both the top and bottom of your box.
