Send groceries by post

Groceries must be packed very well before groceries can be sent by post. Some foods are only conditionally suitable for shipping.

What you need:

First of all, a sufficiently large box must be selected. There should be space for filling material between the individual articles, e.g. B. Glasses are to be sent. Special filling material does not have to be bought, compressed newspaper is sufficient.
Goods that can be bought in sturdy plastic packaging, e.g. B. Nuts, trail mix etc. are also suitable as padding between two glasses.
Fatty foods must be well packed before being sent by post. Depending on the size, in extra plastic cans, plastic bags or cling film.
If eggs are to be sent by post, it makes sense to wrap the egg box as thickly as possible in newspaper and then protect it with additional plastic packaging. If you stow the eggs in the box in such a way that they cannot slip, there is a good chance that the recipient will receive a clean package.

Meat is only conditionally suitable for sending groceries by post. If anything, it should be sent frozen and vacuum-packed with ice packs thickly wrapped in newspaper and aluminum foil. However, this is only recommended in the cool season. You should also think about choosing express shipping for such shipments so that the goods are not transported through long mail delivery times spoil.

When you have stowed all the food safely in the package in the appropriate packaging, you should fill the gaps with newspaper. This means that packaging cannot be hurled hard against each other if the parcel is handled roughly at the post office or if it accidentally falls off.
It is advisable to write or stick the note "careful glass" next to the properly completed parcel card.
Groceries should only be sent by post from Monday to Thursday so that the package can be delivered before the weekend is delivered and the recipient has the opportunity to cool sensitive food so that it does not spoil protection.
