1 ) Only use corrugated boxes

  • FedEx Express packaging is only available for express overnight and 2-day shipments.

  • Always use strong boxes with all flaps intact.

  • Use double-wall boxes for heavy things.

  • If you're recycling a box, be sure it doesn't have any holes, rips, corner dents, or worn labels.

2 ) Fill partial packets with cotton.

  • nsert cotton into half filled bottles to prevent medicine movement

  • Make sure the cap is well secured before placing it in a plastic, zip-lock bag.

3 ) Tightly seal your package

  • Tape seams end to end with at least 2-inch wide packing tape.

  • Employ water-activated paper tape, pressure-sensitive packing tape, or water-activated reinforced tape.

  • To seal parcels, avoid using masking tape, cellophane tape, or thread.

  • Do not use paper to wrap your box

  • Always secure the RxMart pre-paid FedEx shipping label on the box.

4 ) Insulate the package's inside

  • Molded foam (sometimes known as "packing peanuts"), densely packed shredded paper, and plastic bubble cushioning are examples of cushioning materials. Corrugated fiberboard pads are used for blocking and bracing goods during shipment to prevent movement.

  • Add at least 2-3 inches of packing material around your prescription medication (s).

  • If transporting numerous prescription pills, wrap each one separately and lay cushioning between them.

5 ) Use caution while handling frozen, refrigerated, and dry materials.

  • Refrigerate or freeze items before packing according to the manufacturer's instructions.

  • Cool the expanded polystyrene (EPS) container beforehand.

  • If the package contains liquids or perishables that may melt or thaw, double bag or store things in a ziplock bag to guarantee moisture does not leak in.

  • Compact goods, but allow room around them for coolant or dry ice

  • Put a suitable amount of coolant or dry ice on top of and around the items in the insulated container.

  • For any frozen, refrigerated, or dry commodities, use double-wall boxes that are tightly sealed.

6 ) Enclose your signed packing list

  • Be certain you don't forget anything!
