Proper packaging protects your products and reduces returns. Follow these guidelines for hassle-free shipping.
Use a box that fits snugly around your product. Too large = shifting damage. Too small = crushing risk.
Use strong packing tape on all seams. Reinforce the bottom and top with H-taping for extra security.
Use bubble wrap, foam peanuts, or air pillows. Fragile items need at least 2 inches of cushioning on all sides.
Attach the shipping label flat, visible, and unobstructed. Add "FRAGILE" or "THIS SIDE UP" stickers when needed.
Wrap products in polybags or waterproof liners to protect against moisture during transit and storage.
Weigh packages accurately. Incorrect weight leads to delays, weight disputes, and additional charges.
For high-value or fragile items, use a double-box method — inner box for the product, outer box for protection.
Consider recyclable and biodegradable packaging. It's better for the planet and increasingly preferred by customers.
Transparent pricing with no hidden fees. Rates vary based on weight, dimensions, destination, and service type.

If a shipment is returned to origin (RTO), return shipping charges apply. Minimize RTOs with proper address verification and buyer confirmation.

Expert strategies to reduce costs, improve delivery speed, and enhance the customer experience.
Use MoveIntra's analytics dashboard to track delivery performance, identify bottlenecks, and optimize courier selection based on real data.
Group shipments by delivery zones and assign couriers with strongest performance in those regions for better delivery rates.
Schedule pickups before 12 PM to ensure same-day dispatch. Late pickups often result in next-day processing, adding a day to delivery.
Send proactive tracking updates to buyers via SMS/WhatsApp. This reduces "Where is my order?" queries and improves customer satisfaction.
Use address verification, COD-to-prepaid conversion prompts, and buyer confirmation calls to minimize return-to-origin shipments.
Use 3-4 standard box sizes matching your top products. This streamlines packing, reduces waste, and speeds up the fulfillment process.
