The outer surface of the packaging should not have protruding nails or thorns. If the packaging is clean and dry, it should ensure that there are no odor or oil stains. Air cargo agents require that advanced materials in the packaging should not leak out. Except for goods packaged in paper bags, consigned goods should be tied with straps. It is strictly forbidden to use grass bags or grass ropes to bind the cargo. The packaging straps used to tie the cargo should be able to bear the full weight of the cargo and ensure that the cargo remains open when lifted.
If the packaging of the goods does not meet the relevant regulations, the consignor should strictly require improvements or repacking of the goods before delivery. The special packaging requirements of express delivery for certain goods by air cargo companies are for precision fragile goods and fragile goods. The gross weight of a single piece of goods should not exceed the standard weight. A method that can be used is multilevel packaging.
