How to Pack a Glass Coffee Carafe with a Non-Removable Lid
Packing a glass coffee carafe with a non-removable lid can be a tricky process. However with the right supplies and some caution, you can make sure your carafe arrives unscathed and ready to brew. Here are some tips for packaging your glass carafe.
Gathering Materials
Before you start packing your carafe, be sure to have everything on-hand that you need:
- Bubble wrap or other soft packing materials (like foam or newspaper)
- Tape or glue
- Cardboard box or plastic container of the appropriate size
Wrapping and Packing
- Wrap the carafe in generous amounts of bubble wrap or other soft packing materials. This will help protect it from jostling during shipping. Be sure to pay special attention to the lid, which will be the most susceptible to damage.
- Secure the wrap with tape or glue. It should have a snug fit so that if the carafe is jostled, the packing materials will keep it safe.
- Gently place the carafe in your box or plastic container.
- Be sure to add additional soft packing materials around the carafe, like styrofoam peanuts or newspaper, to ensure that it doesn’t move around in the box.
- Securely tape or glue the box shut. Your carafe should be firmly nestled and ready for shipping.
Shipping with Care
Finally, when you ship your carafe, be sure to do so with caution. You should always mark fragile items as such and be sure to select a reliable shipping company. It’s also recommended to take a digital photograph of the package before shipping, in case you need to file a claim with your shipping company.
Following these steps will ensure that your glass carafe arrives safely and securely. Good luck!
