Whatever we choose to send by post, we always want to think that a parcel arrives in the same state at the end of its journey as has how it began.

Something’s are breakable while other can be easily damaged. Either way, any parcel deserves the very best treatment as it goes on its journey.

While it’s unlikely a parcel will have its very own armed escort, it should be looked after with a lot of care and attention.

Of course those sending it can also do their bit, by making sure it’s properly protected.

From jiffy bags to bubble wrap, there’s always something that can provide an added level of protection – it’s just about finding it.

Once you’re safe in the knowledge that the bag you’ve picked will do a job you could set about customising it. Alternatively you could make sure it stands out from the crowd...

Of course, when pets are involved, jiffy bags can be even more fun...

Jiffy bags can also be used as puppets apparently... We love the song choice, although the moves could do with some work...

Another way of guaranteeing a little extra protection is to use bubblewrap.  While it’s great fun to pop, it also provides a more than adequate shield for present as it undertakes its journey.

There’s also plenty of fun to be had with bubblewrap too...

From riding a bike...

To kicking a ball...

 

If you’re sending posters there’s really only one option, and that’s the good old fashioned poster tube. Tough and long-lasting, these tubes should be all that is required for a picturesque finish.

Of course there are plenty of colours to pick from too...

 

However you choose to give your parcel its very own guard of honour, at least you’ll be able to post it knowing it’s in safe hands...
