    Great vid! Thanks for sharing!
    So, why not just put everything into boxes? For example the monopoly?
    I would think the buyer would get upset if the box banged into and it was dinged, but if it's put into a box then that way they will definitely not be any damage to any part of it.
    Would the cost for shipping be that much different for the monopoly if it was put into a box...?
    Is it just to save space?
    Also, I noticed on the Royal Mail, a large letter is 2.5cm width and all the small items I can never seem to get it at that size.
    One time it was a tiny bit over and the post office wouldn't even take the parcel or let me add money to it, so I had to go home, repackage it, and buy a whole new label.🤷🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️

    I would never write contents on the outside unless my postage labels completely opaque. That black sticky stuff looks like a complete faff, offcuts of wallpaper or brown paper uses less tape and doesn't tear so easily. The 1 kilo box fails were funny to watch. Can't believe you tried it twice. The world loves a trier LOL. These are comments not criticisms. A great source of free cardboard boxes is your local recycling centre they have skips full of them in all sizes they don't mind you taking them as long as you ask. Great entertaining video as always.

    Have you tried booking your shipments online and having them collected by a courier? There are free online courier comparison and booking tools available, from online couriers such as World Options where you can choose from multiple world leading carriers and get the best prices and they collect your goods and delivery them without having to leave the house.

    Thanks Nic - I wanted to ask about packing slips. I used to print them off and put them in the package and I notice you don't do that. Is it not really necessary then? I'm assuming if someone really wants a packing slip / invoice they can request it and it can be sent by message for them to print themselves so I've stopped doing that now. Is that ok do you think?

      large letter, we put the packing slip in only because we pick with it and better to go in their bin than mine, parcels dont get one because they are packed to get the weight before the label is printed off and parcel 2 go dont give a packing label on the royal mail (which are our large letters)

      I read that if something is lost or damaged to the outside, the only way to get it to the person is if it has a packing slip inside. Or else the company sells off items in bulk if they can't find it insode to send out to.
      I do it just to be safe 🤦🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

    • @31231james
      @31231james 4 роки тому

      If you are sending stuff that is not a polybag type sale, we have removed about 99% of bubble wrap out the process and replaced it with the paper you get your fish and chips wrapped in, a food supplier will sell you a 10kg packet of sheet paper for about £7 plus VAt (Tax) we worked out using our cardboard boxes 5x5x7 (made from recycled cardboard) we use 6 sheets of paper crunched up against about 2m of bubble wrap, this works out as a cost saving (for us) that we can wrap just under 200 parcels as against wrapping 50 with a roll of bubble wrap when the bubble wrap cost £12 a roll, if using polybags then look towards recycled bags or biodegradable ones
