The first step is to assess the nature of the cargo and classify it based on factors such as size, weight, fragility, perishability, and hazardousness. This information helps determine the appropriate packing materials, shipping method, and any special handling requirements.
Carefully package the cargo using the chosen materials. Wrap fragile items individually, ensuring they are well-protected and immobilized within the packaging. Fill empty spaces with cushioning materials to prevent shifting during transportation. Use appropriate sealing techniques, such as adhesive tape or strapping, to secure the packaging.
