Large or heavy Mirrors are usually safer with freight services than standard parcel, because freight permits palletization and stable handling. For small, well-padded Wall decor under parcel size limits, it is possible to use parcel carriers, but You should add reinforced packaging and insure for full value. Oversized Mirrors are best crated and shipped on pallets to reduce conveyor and drop risks.

For moisture-sensitive Furniture and home accessories, shippers should use poly sheeting around each boxed or crated item, then add Desiccant packs inside the packaging. In ocean containers, never place pallets directly against steel walls; instead, Leave a small air gap and use dry packs hung from lashing points.
