Arrange The Required Material

The very first step toward the safe travel of your sturdy-looking delicate Coffee Mugs is gathering the required materials. That will assist you in packing and organizing the fragile kitchenware towards the safe destination. You will need

1. A Packing Box

Definitely you can’t pack your fragile items until you get a perfect packing box. Make sure that your box is made of any such material that can bear some shock or impact. A corrugated sheet is a right construction that can make a perfect packing back as the cavity created in the walls can bear any unwanted shock and stress.

2. Appropriate Partition

Another important thing which you need to check with your packing box is its proper partition. as if the box doesn’t have proper segregation your mugs can smash with each other and cause damage. So add the partition to keep things in place whether you are packing your mugs or your delicate and fragile wine glasses.

3. Add Strength

We all know that the hollow cavities in the mugs and wine glasses make them prone to breakage and damage. And the edges are especially sensitive areas, prone to chipping. what you can do to save those sensitive parts. You have two options either you can pack mugs with a bubble wrap sheet or without a bubble wrap sheet.

a. How to pack Mugs With a Bubble wrap sheet?

If you want to go for the option of packing with bubble wrap, with minimum material you can grab maximum security. As the bubbles of the sheet have air-filled hemispheres those not only protect your fragile item by bearing the impact but also provide a cushion that increases its shock resistance.So placing the mugs on that vacuumed sheet is a good protective gear that you can provide to your beloved barware while sending them by mail or shifting them anywhere.

b. How to pack Mugs without bubble Wrap?

When you have no bubble sheet and still want perfect coverage for your fragile items.  You need to arrange a perfect alternative. What it can be it can be anything that can create that safe vacuum that can add resistance against shock.  It can be a crumpled newspaper or a packing sheet or you can put a few packing peanuts or any of these to add impact bearing and softly fill up the cavity.

Cover and Fill

You need to cover and fill your mugs with newspaper stuffing or packing sheets that the cavity is no more vacant and no more unsafe.
Moreover while wrapping and covering your mug take special care and notice of the handle of a mug and stem of a wine glass. Both of these areas are very much delicate and can get damaged even with a slight shock.

 

Tips to cover and pack

  • While covering a mug make sure that all the edges are tugged carefully leaving no unwrapped or uncovered area that can clash and collapse.
  • Handle of a mug and stem in wine glass both are most delicate areas double-check while covering.
  • Don’t forget to pack the articles with a similar size in one box to get more safety and less unsafe vacuum.
  • Don’t forget to place the bubble wrap sheet beneath and upon the mug to add shock resistance.
  • Adding a few packing peanuts is a good idea.
  • But stuffing the box tightly is certainly not a great idea as extra pressure can cause undue breakage.

Packing Tape 

After doing all the hard work now you need to secure the packing box. For that, you need a nice packing tape that sticks immediately and perfectly keeping all your safety measures within the box in full protection.

A Permanent marker

Another important thing that you might don’t consider that important is a permanent market that actually acts as an official seal to your packing. you must mention the product name and the fragile on it with a permanent marker. This measure may sound less important to you, but believe me, this one is actually the most important one. As this will alarm anybody around while he or she is going to handle it hard.

Moreover, when you are going to unpack you can take these articles apart and arrange them on priority at maximum ease and minimum risk.

Note: don’t forget to properly clean the mugs and glasses before sending them into packing as when you will unpack them you will be in new surroundings where it’s better to put them safely instead of going to wash them before even using them.
