How to Transport Alcohol Safely
Packaging Requirements
Use purpose-made bottle cartons with dividers or double-walled boxes and plenty of shock-absorbent packing to prevent movement. Seal boxes with strong tape and consider secondary containment for bottles to protect against leaks. For pallets or large consignments, secure cartons with shrink wrap and straps. Parcels over 25 kg should be palletised to meet courier handling requirements. Note length limits and pallet rules when booking larger items. See full packaging requirements.
Labelling and Documentation
After booking with Transdirect, you’ll be supplied with shipping labels for your items. Each item is issued a unique label, which must be securely fixed to each item. If labels are not affixed correctly, a Futile Collection fee may apply. For international shipments, please ensure all appropriate customs documentation has been supplied.
