Why Sweden needs special attention
Shipments to Sweden 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.
Stoccolma e Göteborg hanno hub di all i carriers principali; le zone rurali sono less servite.
The 5 steps to pack desktop PC for Sweden
Step 1 — Materials needed. box originale con polistirolo modellato, blocca componenti interni con spugne.
Step 2 — Clean and prepare. Clean desktop PC before packing. Customs declarations require precise descriptions: remove old labels and photograph the item before wrapping.
Step 3 — Inner protective layer. wrap desktop PC con minimo 3 strati di pluriball (o 4-5 for oggetti very delicati). Non save sull'packaging: il parcel passa for 2-3 hub europei.
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 Sweden's local language if relevant). FRAGILE label on 2 sides if applicable.
