ParcelPedia owner James Banks unpacks the common shipping mistakes that cost you money and peace of mind.Box size mismatch tops the list of shipping blunders. That small notepad in a large box might seem convenient, but you'll pay dearly for that empty space through dimensional weight calculations. As James puts it, "You're literally paying for air." Beyond the unexpected costs, items rattling around in oversized boxes are more likely to arrive damaged - a lose-lose situation that's easily avoided with appropriately sized packaging. Perhaps most surprising is the truth about those "Fragile" stickers.
