Mailing to the US
I finally mailed last month three boxes to my sister in the US. All those three contained ceramics, porcelain and crystal decors. My sister informed me that she had already received all the boxes. Sad to say, some of the items were damaged. I should put corner protectors on all corners of the boxes to help prevent the items inside the boxes from breaking.
I wrapped everything inside with plastic bubbles, papers and styrofoams but still some were broken. I learned a lesson from it. The next time I will send fragile items, I need to wrapped it more and put corner protectors. It was a long way from Europe to the US.
I also hope that those who are working on the post office should also take good care of the items. I heard from someone that if you write fragile outside of the box, some employees will try to drop the boxes on the floor. Not really good!
Have a nice weekend everyone!
