Rain or shine, protect what’s yours.
Let’s be real—whether you’re a small business owner shipping out daily orders or just someone doing a big lipat bahay delivery, proper packaging can make or break the experience (literally).
Before booking your next Lalamove delivery, let’s talk packing: how to keep your goods safe from bumps, leaks, and rain. Because even the best delivery companies for small business can only do so much if your items aren’t packed right.
How to Pack Items Properly for Safe Delivery
📦 For Small Parcels
Selling accessories, cosmetics, or gifts? This is your section.
✔️ Wrap each item separately with bubble wrap
✔️ Use sturdy boxes and double-tape the seams
✔️ Rainy day tip: Put your items inside ziplocks before boxing—it’s a small step that saves big headaches.
If you run a small business in the Philippines, this small tweak to your packing process keeps your customers happy and your ratings high.
🥂 For Fragile Items (Plates, Glassware, etc.)
Breakables need TLC.
✔️ Foam or bubble wrap is non-negotiable
✔️ Use cardboard dividers inside boxes
✔️ Mark “FRAGILE” clearly (the bolder, the better)
✔️ Waterproof wrap before boxing to prep for long distance delivery or bad weather
Need to deliver in bulk? Choose an L300 or MPV via the Lalamove app for better space and protection.
🛋️ For Furniture & Appliances
Doing a lipat bahay delivery or outfitting your new business space? Here’s how to prep like a pro:
✔️ Disassemble what you can (legs, shelves, cords)
✔️ Wrap corners with thick cardboard or foam
✔️ Secure everything—no one likes runaway drawers mid-transit
✔️ Cover in plastic wrap or tarp to keep things dry during provincial delivery
This one’s crucial for business owners moving store displays or equipment. Remember, you're not just moving stuff—you're protecting your investment.
💧 For Liquids
From cleaning supplies to skincare, here’s how to avoid the dreaded leak.
✔️ Tighten lids and tape them down
✔️ Double bag in waterproof ziplocks
✔️ Label “This Side Up”
✔️ Add paper towel lining inside the box—just in case!
If your small business in the Philippines includes liquid goods, this is a must-do to avoid returns or refunds.
📦 For Stocks (Business Inventory, Bulk Orders)
Managing inventory? Here's how to pack it like the pros:
✔️ Sort by category or SKU
✔️ Use clear, consistent labeling
✔️ Waterproof boxes—especially for long haul delivery
✔️ Use plastic bins for extra durability
Whether you're selling fashion, gadgets, or food, proper packing + reliable logistics = a business that scales.
