1. In addition to packing material from your Tuxton Home box, use an old shirt or towel you'd like to donate to wrap all items very tightly -- this prevents items from hitting each other.

2. Stuff packing material in any hollow spaces to prevent crushing - inside mugs/bowls/vases, in the handle of a mug or teapot, etc.

3. Double line all sides of the box to protect against external impact (easily done by using bubble wrap to line the sides before packing the box -- don't forget to leave a piece for the top of the box before sealing!)
