Corrosion Protection – protect metals from rust during transport
Wrap and Cushion Delicate Items
Individually wrap fragile items and add cushioning inside the box to absorb shocks.
Secure the Contents
Use strong packing tape, straps, or shrink wrap so nothing shifts in transit.
Label Clearly and Accurately
Show the full address + return address. Use label protectors or pouches.
Barcode Stickers
Apply one barcode per unit—make sure it’s clear and scannable.
Palletize When Possible
Stack boxes evenly, secure with shrink wrap/straps, and avoid overhang.
Packing Drums for Transport
Use steel, plastic, or fiber drums (as required). Always palletize, strap, and follow Transport Canada guidelines for hazardous materials.
