Most carriers recommend bundling paper and notebooks in sealed plastic sleeves, using double-walled boxes, and placing desiccant packs for longer or ocean shipments.

Keep moisture-sensitive paper away from pallet edges and add a top sheet or pallet cover if there is any risk of humidity or light rain during handling.

It can cover Moisture damage that standard carrier liability may not fully reimburse, especially for higher-value office equipment or large volumes of paper products.
