When my friend started selling things on Amazon, he was not good at handling large orders.
The first bad review in his life came from careless packaging and damaged the goods.
A friend made a typical novice mistake, that is, put the goods in a box and only fill the top and sides with fillers.
In the process of transportation, the box will inevitably be deformed due to human factors. In order to avoid damaging the goods, every contact surface of the goods should be protected.
? Now he has learned a lot from customers. In order to make customers enjoy the experience of unpacking more happily, he added some personal things.
Good packaging and on-time delivery are indispensable factors to maintain customers and successfully run Amazon. ?
Oversize boxes will lead to higher freight and waste of fillers.
Suitably sized boxes can reduce the collision between goods and boxes. Choose the right box and try to pack it in different ways. ?
Goods stored in the warehouse for a long time may accumulate dust and sundries, so cleaning becomes very important, but it is necessary to avoid leaving scratches on the goods.
Put the second-hand products into the original packaging and mark them for second sale.
If you don't have the original packaging, you can also put it in a box with the right size and pack it in a bigger box.
Pack the goods in strong cartons, confirm whether the weight limit is exceeded after packing, and fill the gaps with waste paper, polystyrene filler or cardboard to fix the goods and avoid the collision of the goods in the boxes due to movement during transportation.
The secret of packaging is to fill the gap in the box with filler to the upper edge of the box to ensure that the goods will not move because of shaking.
Before sealing the box, put a thick cardboard on the top of the box and leave enough space to seal the box. Packaging with recycled materials Most people have the habit of reusing cartons, but never use cracked cartons. Once cracks appear, the strength that the carton can bear will be reduced by 70%. In order to save costs, many merchants use recycled or poor quality cartons to pack boxes, which often results in bad reviews from buyers or returns, which is not worth the loss.
These decomposable packaging materials will eventually decompose and destroy naturally due to the relationship between temperature and humidity after long-term contact with air. Reuse of wrapping paper and packaging foam will also reduce its endurance. You must be very careful when choosing recycled packaging materials.
Compared with polystyrene, polyethylene and polyurethane materials have relatively high stress. Because these materials are not only thin and strong, but also can consume less to achieve the packaging effect, so you can choose smaller boxes for packaging and save freight.
For products such as ovens or televisions, make sure to use foam or polystyrene foam to prevent corner collisions.
It is necessary to prevent fragile parts such as screens from coming into direct contact. ?
Fragile products must be packed with polystyrene filled particles or foam paper. Double packaging can be used if necessary.
If two goods are packed in one box at the same time, there must be enough space to put foam in the middle of the packed goods to avoid collision during moving. Finally, the box must be marked "fragile" on the outside. ?
For everyone, it is very annoying to receive a damaged commodity during transportation, especially for holidays or birthday gifts, which is even more unacceptable to buyers. In different festivals, such as birthdays, anniversaries or special festivals like Christmas, merchants should not only pay attention to the timely delivery of goods, but also pay attention to the quality of goods when they are received. So it's best to spend more time packaging goods and make them beautiful. Sometimes paying attention to small details will make customers more satisfied with your service. ?
You never want the high-priced goods you sent to be lost in the middle. So at least use 7x4x4 boxes to send expensive jewelry and so on.
Too small a box is easy to be misplaced or forgotten during transportation.
Never mark the value of the goods on the outside of the box. It is best to use the signature to confirm that the goods have successfully reached the buyer. ?
Your package is likely to be recklessly thrown into a transport vehicle or container by the transport personnel.
So you must design an experiment to test whether your packaging can meet the test of these environments in any possible harsh environment, such as temperature difference and humidity.
No matter what kind of goods you send, make sure they are well packed and waterproof. The address on the parcel was stained by rain; The weight of wet packing is too heavy, and the buyer has to pay extra overweight fee when receiving the goods. These are all factors that may cause you to receive bad reviews. ?
The packing list can be printed from Amazon's Manage Orders page. The address label is attached to the outer layer of the carton, and the second packing list should be placed in the inner box together with the goods. ?
Confirming the correct delivery address is the most basic, but it is also the most error-prone. It is best to add a clear return address to the outer box.
The address should be posted or written directly on the outer box. It is best to write with an oily pen. If you make a mistake, you can easily find it and correct it.
This can also avoid the problem that the address is blurred because of rain, or the label is wrinkled and unclear.
Never wrap any paper outside the box, because it is easy to tear off during transportation, resulting in the loss of goods. It's best to add postal code to make your goods reach customers faster. ?

Once you join the FBA, you don't have to worry about packing. If you want to complete all the packaging and packing by yourself, please keep in mind the main points on the above packaging to ensure that you can provide customers with an international shopping experience. FBA packaging instructions: Some products will expose products, such as pillows or genuine fabrics, especially baby and children's products. They must be tightly wrapped in plastic bags to ensure that they will not be stained with dust during transportation. After the packaging is completed, it must be ensured that the bar code can still be brushed. If not, it must be labeled ASIN. Fragile products need careful protection, such as using foam cloth. Wrap it tightly to ensure that it won't bounce around during transportation. Barcodes must be scanned without disassembly. They will also do an impact test (five times without losing = =). The bottle mouth of liquid products must have two layers of seals. If not, it should be wrapped in plastic. This should also be shock tested. ?
1. Sealed packages such as boxed biscuits also need impact test.
? 2. Sharp objects, such as knives, can't expose sharp parts. ?
3. Very small products (one inch to two inches) must be packaged separately. ?
4. If it is sold as a whole, it must be clearly marked as a whole. ?
5. Make sure that the labels of all the above packages can be scanned.
? 6. For products that are about to expire, the expiration date must be printed where Amazon personnel can see it. If it is a product that needs to be wrapped with bubble cloth, it must be re-labeled with two labels, a barcode and an expiration date label.
In addition, many small products will be packed in large boxes when stored. In this case, each product must have its own sku. Boxed boxes should not have any bar codes that may be scanned. Anything that will confuse Amazon should be avoided as much as possible to save homework time. If you reuse a previously used carton, you must tear off or cover all the original barcodes on it to ensure that there is only one barcode on it. For the same reason. When stacking or goods, they must be neatly arranged and wrapped on a 48x48-inch wooden bottom, and the stacking height should not be higher than 72 inches.
