You can use either bubble mailers or boxes when shipping a book sold on PangoBooks. The right choice depends on the size of the order, the type of book, and its value.
✅ Recommended Packaging
If using a mailer, pick a bubble-lined mailer so the book doesn’t shift or get damaged in transit.
If using a box, include extra packing material (like bubble wrap) around the book to prevent movement during shipping.
You may reuse packaging from other shipments, as long as the packaging is in good condition and all old labels, logos, and markings are fully removed or covered.
🚫 Packaging to Avoid
Do not use paper-only mailers or plain manila envelopes with no padding, as they do not offer enough protection.
Do not use a USPS Priority Mail-branded box or envelope when using a Media Mail label, as this can lead to a surcharge or return.
Do you use any product box that, when originally shipped, was packaged into another box (ie, cereal box, box with a collapsible bottom)
💡 Quick Tips
Choose packaging that fits the book snugly without excessive space.
If you reuse a box, completely remove previous shipping labels and markings, including any indication that the box once contained alcohol, cosmetics, or cleaning supplies.
Always securely seal seams and check that nothing will shift during shipping.
Please be considerate of scent sensitivities and allergies when selecting your packaging materials.
❓ What if I need to package my order in multiple boxes or mailers?
If possible, use one package for all books in an order! However, if you need to use more than one package for your order, please reach out to us at support via the chat icon on the bottom right of the screen or via email at support@pangobooks.com with the order number and weight of each package.
