People who often receive or send packages should have encountered problems such as damaged packaging, unclear address, and missing internal parts. What principles should be adhered to in the transportation and packaging of international logistics/express goods (cargo, express, parcel, etc.)? What problems should be paid attention to in AR product packaging?
1) Suitable for transportation
This is the basic requirement for transportation packaging (transportation packaging is also called outer packaging, as opposed to commodity packaging/inner packaging/sales packaging). The transport packaging must be strong, impact-resistant, and vibration-resistant, and at the same time, it must take into account the functions of moisture-proof, anti-theft, and anti-loss.
2) Protect the product, prevent moisture and theft
Protecting the product is the minimum requirement for packaging, and other requirements (such as being suitable for transportation, easy to load and unload, beautiful, etc.) are only meaningful under the premise of protecting the product. For high-value but small-sized products, special attention should be paid to the function of moisture-proof and anti-theft. If the anti-theft seal is attached to the outer package, as long as the seal is intact, it means that the product inside is not lost.
3) Easy to load and unload
It is well packaged, easy to handle, easy to load and unload, which is conducive to improving efficiency, and at the same time, it can avoid the damage and damage that may be caused to the goods by "brutal loading and unloading". Such as: pay attention to the weight and size of each package - too heavy will lead to inconvenience in handling and loading and unloading; irregular shape is not conducive to neat stacking, which may easily lead to unnecessary deformation and damage. If it is palletized goods or large-sized goods that must be loaded, unloaded, and transported by forklifts or cranes, it must be convenient for mechanical operations, such as necessary jacks or lifting holes or rings.
4) Moderate and reasonable packaging
According to the actual situation of the goods (weight, size, shape, volume, etc.), choose suitable packaging boxes, boards, packaging fillers, sealing methods (whether wrapping straps), and reinforcement methods. Be sure to avoid the packaging box being too large, resulting in insufficient packaging with empty space inside, which is very likely to cause damage to the packaging and the goods. Of course, it should not be overpacked, resulting in unnecessary waste of packaging materials.
5) The package is integrated
The outer packaging should be integrated with the inner protective materials, buffers and the product itself. When an outer packaging contains multiple small inner packagings, it is necessary to pay attention to the neat and good stacking between the contents or between the outer packaging and the contents. When the gap is filled, it should be filled with buffer or protective material to avoid unnecessary collision, friction or extrusion due to the gap.
6) Pay attention to the balance of direction and center of gravity
If the goods cannot be placed sideways or upside down, the goods that must be facing up must be clearly marked on the outer packaging, and there must be "up" and other relevant signs on all sides. During handling, loading and unloading, storage, and transportation, the outer packaging must be strictly followed. The arrows on it identify the correct handling and disposal of the goods. The center of gravity of the package should be located in the center, and the weight distribution should be kept as balanced as possible. If the center of gravity cannot be kept near the center due to the problem of the item itself, it is best to indicate the weight on that side.

FBA first service and Amazon are not responsible for customs clearance and the service of sending goods from China to Amazon warehouse. FBA first service refers to the service of transporting goods from China to Amazon warehouse. There are special services to meet this demand. For example、 Todropshipping has services in South China and East China. FBA should have four delivery methods in the first journey and on the market:
1. Direct delivery; DHL、 UPS、 Fedex and other products are generally priced at more than 20kg. They are fast and suitable for urgent replenishment. In addition、 express delivery is free of reservation warehousing、 but it should be noted that Amazon does not act as the main body of customs clearance、 is not responsible for customs clearance and tax payment、 and must do a good job of declaration and tariff advance and prepare local customs clearance importers in advance. In general、 Todropshipping can provide tax number borrowing.
2. FBA Air+Dispatch: It is transported to the local place by air and then sent to the Amazon warehouse by local express. It is fast and slightly slower than direct delivery. Express delivery is very convenient for warehousing without reservation. At present、 the air+pie on the market is generally double tax payment、 does not need to pay customs duties in advance、 and the cost is also very cheap、 about 20-30 RMB/kg.
3. FBA sea transportation first journey: sea transportation+local customs clearance+destination country delivery、 with a slightly longer time limit. The full price does not include tax. It is almost 1000 yuan per square meter. The United States and Britain are cheaper、 while Canada is more expensive. The first voyage of this kind of sea transportation is long and usually takes more than a month. At that time、 it was a trailer that was sent to Amazon. It usually requires warehousing reservation. The operation is more troublesome than express delivery. However、 the price is cheap. If you calculate it as 1CBM=167kg、 it is just a few yuan and 1kg、 which is 1kg cheaper than the express delivery. The cost of 10 cases of 20kg goods and express delivery is about 6000、 but it is estimated that the cost of sea transportation is less than 2000. However、 it has a long time limit and is suitable for non urgent replenishment.
4. Overseas warehouse allocation: put goods in Todropshipping overseas warehouse. One can be used as Amazon FBA. In addition、 it can sell goods from overseas warehouses on other platforms. There are many options for transferring goods from overseas warehouses to Amazon. You can choose express delivery without reservation or trailer delivery. The method is flexible and simple. It can also be replenished more frequently and the replenishment time is short. In addition、 the customs clearance problem has been solved before the goods arrive at the warehouse、 and there is no big problem when the goods are sent from the warehouse to Amazon. In particular、 Amazon FBA will raise prices next year、 and it will also try other platforms、 such as self built platforms、 wish、 and many new platforms.
