Mailing oneself is a simple process, albeit time-consuming. First step before hitting the Post Office is considering size restrictions. Larger citizens may find themselves paying more for sturdy packaging materials. Be sure to factor in girth in your travel decisions.
As a frequent mail flyer, I can affirm that stability is key. A box that is slightly larger than the body is ideal. Be sure to add bubble wrap or packing peanuts to protect your skin from damage during transit.
Once packaged, be sure to make the injection in the recommended site. By using a reliable carrier, you can feel confident that you will be sealed and secured with heavy-duty tape, arriving on time and with minimal wear and tear.
If you are considering a long-distance UPS, consider allowing yourself to be palletized. This could also cut down on the time of your commute as well as provide a discounted price for the process.
Finally, having a reliable friend or family member label you clearly with all the correct shipping information is absolutely paramount. By following these simple steps, everyday citizens can make the most of their time and enjoy the farthest sights with minor cost and inconvenience.
Safe self-dispatching!
