Wheel Packing Guide
PACK IT RIGHT. SHIP IT SAFE.
Proper packaging is the difference between a 5-star review and a damaged return. Follow our enterprise-grade packing protocol to ensure your wheels arrive flawlessly while optimizing dimensional weight for cheaper shipping rates.
The 6-Step Packing Protocol
Strictly adhere to these steps to validate your Wheel Front® Seller Protection. Never reuse weak or compromised cardboard.
01
Confirm Dimensions STEP 1
- Measure wheel diameter and width accurately.
- Refer to Standard DIM to choose the correct box size.
- Never reuse weak, damp, or structurally damaged boxes.
02
Reinforce Base STEP 2
- Seal bottom flaps from the inside first for structural rigidity.
- Apply heavy-duty shipping tape along all primary seams.
- Add rigid corner edge protectors to the inner walls.
03
Install Foam Cradles STEP 3
- Place high-density foam inserts correctly in all four corners.
- Ensure the foam creates a snug, restrictive fit.
- The goal is to completely prevent internal movement.
04
Lower Wheel In STEP 4
- Lower the wheel slowly into the cradle face-up.
- Avoid dropping or impacting the bottom cardboard.
- Critical: The wheel lip/barrel must not touch the box walls directly.
05
Fill Voids & Protect STEP 5
- Fill all remaining void spaces completely with packing material.
- Add a thick protective plastic layer over the wheel face.
- Stabilize the product so it cannot shift if the box is turned upside down.
06
H-Tape & Labeling STEP 6
- Use the "H-taping" method (tape center seam and both edge seams).
- Ensure all seams are completely sealed against moisture.
- Apply the shipping label flat on the top of the box, avoiding edges.
