1. Backup and Remove Sensitive Items

• Back up your data before shipping.

• Remove any loose USB drives, dongles, or external accessories.

2. Secure Internal Components

• Protect the GPU: Use foam or anti-static wrap to support the GPU. If possible, remove it and pack it separately in an anti-static bag.

• Prevent shifting: Use Instapak foam or crumpled anti-static bubble wrap to fill internal space and stop parts from moving.

3. Wrap the Tower Properly

• Use anti-static wrap or a soft cloth to wrap the case.

• Add several layers of bubble wrap around the entire case.

• Avoid packing peanuts directly around exposed vents or fans.

4. Use a Double Box Method

• Place the wrapped PC in a snug-fitting inner box.

• Then, place that box inside a larger, sturdy shipping box with cushioning on all sides (2 inches or more).

5. Label Clearly and Secure Properly

• Use clear “FRAGILE” and “THIS SIDE UP” labels.

• Seal the box with high-quality packing tape on all edges.

6. Choose a Trusted Courier with Insurance

• Use tracked and insured shipping services.

• Consider couriers like DPD, UPS, or Royal Mail Special Delivery for high-value items.

Bonus Tip: Include a Note for the Buyer

• Add a checklist of included items and contact info.

• Include setup instructions if needed.
