-Use a six-sided hard packaging box with a complete lid.
-Each box in your shipment must have its own FBA shipping label (printed from your Shipment Queue).
- Each pallet requires four labels, one at the top center of each side.
-When using large cartons to send multiple factory-packaged products to an Amazon fulfillment center, please affix a unique shipping label to the large cartons used to transport the products.
-If using a used box, remove any old shipping labels or other markings.
-Use strong tape designed for delivery.
-After packing the box, shake it gently. The contents of the box should not move when shaken.
- Goods packaged in cartons should only contain one PO. If a carton contains goods from multiple POs, then make sure that one carton can only contain goods from a maximum of 5 POs.
- The maximum weight of the carton packaging shall not exceed 22.5kg (50 pounds). If the weight of a single item sold exceeds 22.5kg (50 pounds), a "Team Lift" label must be posted on the carton to indicate that a team is required to operate it. If the weight of the box exceeds 45kg (100 pounds), a "Mech Lift" label must be posted on the carton to indicate that a machine is required to operate it.
- Cartons containing jewelry and watches must not weigh more than 18kg (40 lbs).
- Any side of the carton must not exceed 63.5cm, unless the size of the product sold individually exceeds 63.5cm.
If any side of the carton exceeds 63.5cm, the carton needs to be placed on a 1mX1.25m pallet, unless the size of the carton for the single-unit sale exceeds the size of the standard pallet.
- Cartons and packaging materials (e.g. cushioning, filling) must adequately protect the goods during transport. If the goods are packaged in packaging materials that are not accepted by the Amazon fulfillment center, the goods may be rejected or additional packaging fees may be charged.
- Use large-sized cushioning, such as air pillows, whole sheets of paper, foam paper, or bubble wrap, rather than loose filling materials.
-Choose the size of the carton to ensure that there is minimal empty space after the goods are placed in the carton. Space utilization can also be maximized by packing multiple items in one carton.
- Cartons cannot be tied with strapping tape, elastic bands, adhesive tape or additional strapping tape. Do not use large staples or nylon fiber tape as they pose a safety hazard to warehouse colleagues.
- Multiple cartons identified as sold together (e.g. sets) weighing more than 45 kg must be placed on a single pallet (one pallet per unit).
- Single-unit carton goods (such as furniture) weighing more than 45 kg need to be palletized. Pallet-sized boxes (also known as "Gaylords") are not permitted.
- Point-of-sale containers commonly used to display merchandise (e.g., open-front boxes or boxes without lids) may not be used.
In addition, the packaging materials of the goods cannot be random. The following packaging materials are recommended:
- Bubble film packaging
- Full paper (preferably heavyweight kraft)
- Inflatable air pillow
-Polyethylene foam board
Do not use the following packaging materials:
- Various types of small pieces of packaging foam, including foam strips
-Crinkled paper packaging
- Shredded paper
- Foam
Finally, there is a practical trick I want to tell you. Using a box that is at least 6 inches x 4 inches x 1 inch in size and weighs at least 1 pound, but no larger than 25 inches on any side and weighs less than 50 pounds can reduce receiving delays.
