Got a diploma o pergamena to ship to the Netherlands and don't know where to start? It's simpler than it seems once you know the four right variables: weight, dimensions, urgency and carrier. In this guide we'll tell you what it really costs, which carrier is best for this specific shipment, and how to pack it to avoid nasty surprises.
Did you know? Il weight volumetrico (LxLxA cm / 5000) è il principale "trucco" che pochi conoscono: a box troppo grande con inside pochi oggetti pays come se fosse very più heavy. Compatta always.
Why the Netherlands needs special attention
Shipments to the Netherlands are within Europe: more sorting hubs, more handling, more impact risk. Packaging matched to both item and destination makes the difference between an intact arrival and a bad surprise.
Gli olandesi sono al primo posto in Europa for uso di locker e pickup point: il destinatario often preferisce drop-off a casa.
The 5 steps to pack diploma for the Netherlands
Step 1 — Materials needed. tubo di cartone rigido, never piegato, raccomandata.
Step 2 — Clean and prepare. Clean diploma before packing. Customs declarations require precise descriptions: remove old labels and photograph the item before wrapping.
Step 3 — Inner protective layer. Wrap diploma in at least 3 layers of bubble wrap. Don't skimp on packing: the parcel passes through 2–3 European hubs.
Step 4 — Sturdy box. Double-wall corrugated cardboard, 5–10 cm larger than the contents on every side. Never reuse crushed boxes: cardboard loses strength after 1–2 shipments.
Step 5 — Sealing and labelling. H-shaped seal with 50+ mm tape. Label in Italian and English (or the Netherlands's local language if relevant). FRAGILE label on 2 sides if applicable.
