Step 2 — Clean and prepare. Clean electric scooter before packing. Customs declarations require precise descriptions: remove old labels and photograph the item before wrapping.
Step 3 — Inner protective layer. Wrap electric scooter in at least 3 layers of bubble wrap. Don't skimp on packing: the parcel passes through 2–3 European hubs.
