How to Package Plants – The Packaging Doctor
As winter winds down and spring approaches, there’s no better time to get outside and enjoy the changing seasons. In today’s blog, we’re going to tackle a common challenge faced by many businesses: how to safely package potted plants for transport.
Our team recently received an inquiry from Richard, who runs an eco-friendly business dedicated to rescuing native plants and animals from areas affected by urban development. His team needed advice on ensuring their precious cargo arrived intact without any spills or damage during transit.
Here’s what Richard had to say:
Hi Doctor,
I hope you can help!
We rescue native plants and animals from development sites where bushland is being cleared. We need a solution to keep the plants secure in their pots and prevent soil spillage. Since they’re being shipped via courier, it’s crucial that everything stays safe during transport.
Thank you,
Richard
Hi Richard,
First off, thank you for all the incredible work your team does! Protecting nature is such an important mission, and we’re thrilled to help with one of the trickiest parts—getting those plants safely to their new homes.
Transporting plants can be challenging because they’re often lightweight and prone to shifting around during transit. However, I’m confident we’ve got the right tools to make sure your plants arrive exactly as intended.
For starters, we recommend using our extra-heavy-duty boxes. These are our most robust options, designed specifically for heavy and delicate items. They’ve undergone rigorous testing to guarantee maximum protection during transport.
To further secure the plants, consider adding our Speedman Box manual paper void fill system. This method is perfect for smaller shipments and ensures the plants don’t move around inside the box. Additionally, wrapping each pot in a poly bag before placing it in the box will help protect the soil from getting too moist and damaging the packaging.
Finally, don’t forget to include our Handling Labels. These labels remind couriers to handle the packages gently, reducing the risk of accidents.
We hope these tips help you and your team continue making a positive impact on the environment. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to reach out!
Wishing you success in your endeavors,
The Packaging Doctor
