Hi guys,
I've got to ship a few wine bottles to customers and wanted your opinion on what is the best way to package them to make sure that Australia Post doesn't destroy them but I still make a little profit?
I've tried the Aus Post wine boxes but they aren't that great. I've tried plenty of bubble wrap on the ends to good success but still have had a few mishaps.. What are your suggestions?
Thanks!
packing peanuts?
wine into a wine box then into a bigger box with peanuts around it.
Do you ship often with in AU? else use another courier such as fastway.
Will definitely try that though I am a little concerned peanuts would be quite expensive to use. Yes, I only ship within Australia. I ship each business day. Do you think couriers handle parcels better? I've never tried them before. Thanks for your input!

Something like that. 3 bags. 400L per bag.
enough to pack heaps.
and no sure if they handle it better, but it just another option you can try and also it may or may not be cheaper
It depends on how many you're shipping, 3-6, I'd be using a normal wine box (IE: the 6 bottle boxes you buy wine in)… We ship wines with AU Post and it works out ok…
Hey, Just 1 or 2 max each time unfortuantely. We have had a 4% damage rate which isn't too bad I guess.
Aust Ppost have single and double wine boxes too… They are self-centering. I've never shipped them, but I've received them packed with scotch before.
wooden wine box?
Otherwise i'd bubble wrap them, then put in a large box.
