Shoe boxes and bag fillers take space, so the parcel may be billed by volumetric weight even when the actual weight is low.
If original boxes are not needed, removing some packaging can reduce volume while keeping enough protection.
Small urgent fashion parcels can use air freight. Larger quantities shipped with clothing or bedding can be assessed for sea freight.
Valuable bags, easily deformed shoes and branded goods should be packed and declared carefully.
Declare shoes, bags, clothing accessories or hats clearly instead of Taobao goods only.
Avoid mixing shoes and bags with liquids, food or heavy goods.
