    This document provides instructions for properly packing and shipping fragile items to ensure they arrive safely. It recommends using a hard cardboard box and filling all empty spaces with packing peanuts or crumpled newspaper to protect the item from shifting during transport. The item should be wrapped in bubble wrap before placing in the inner box. The inner box is then placed within a larger outer box which is also filled with packing materials to cushion it on all sides, and secured with tamper proof tape. When done correctly, this "bomb proof" packing method protects fragile items from being damaged.

    How to Properly "BOMB PROOF" A Box

    This is not necessary for all pieces but for something like what is pictured you would want to pack it like this to be extra safe. Smaller/less fragile pieces
    can go single box as long as you have a good amount of padding. Always use hard cardboard boxes, soft weak cardboard could lead to disaster. If you
    use newspaper or any type of paper crumple them up into balls to make them into padding, wrapping with paper does nothing. Shredded paper is
    good too but you have to pack it in tight.

    You always want to wrap the piece with a nice layer of bubble wrap before anything.

    Put it in a box with peanuts on the bottom, and try to protect the edges as much as possible, that is most important.
    Protect the top of the box with either bubble wrap, extra peanuts, or cardboard.

    Seal the box up (pictured with tamper proof tape).


    Open up a slightly bigger box, put peanuts on the bottom and place the box into that one.

    Put peanuts in that box, stuff all the sides in with peanuts and put a little on top.
    Protect the top of the box with either bubble wrap, extra peanuts, or cardboard.

    Seal it up and you have officially been bomb proofed.
