• Name the intended destinationShare where and when the combined shipment is needed so the final package plan serves the itinerary.

Combine only items that can travel safely together

• Protect fragile contentsItems should not be combined when weight, shape, movement, or pressure could damage the contents.

• Keep unlike items separateCompatibility matters when purchases, boxes, and luggage require different protection or handling. Combining awkward shapes or fragile and heavy contents can create a worse shipment rather than a simpler one.

• Allow special packing when neededSpecial packing or handling is confirmed case by case rather than assumed to be part of ordinary consolidation.
