Finally, conspicuously label all packages as “Glass – Do Not Stack” and indicate the Upright orientation.

Large or heavy Mirrors are usually safer with freight services than standard parcel, because freight permits palletization and Upright handling. For small, well-padded Wall decor under parcel size limits, You can use parcel carriers, but shippers should add double-boxing and insure for full value. Oversized glass furnishings are best crated and shipped on pallets to reduce conveyor and drop risks.

For moisture-sensitive Furniture and home accessories, shippers should use Sealed inner bags around each boxed or crated item, then add Desiccant packs inside the packaging. In ocean containers, Avoid pallets directly against steel walls; instead, maintain a small air gap and use humidity absorbers hung from lashing points. Choose sheltered loading bays so decorative item boxes are not exposed to rain during loading.

You should clearly describe items (for example, “wooden furniture,” “glass mirrors,” “metal wall decor”) and state materials to avoid customs delays. For designer or branded home decor, confirm if any IP documentation or COO documents are required by the destination country.
