I'm writing this Guide to use for INSTRUCTIONS on HOW TO PROPERLY PACK & SHIP GLASS-without BREAKAGE! 

After receiving far too many Broken pieces of Antique Glass etc., I've decided to share my TIPS on Packing and Shipping this stuff! I've Never had any shipping breakage using this method.

1. WRAPPING: Wrap each item Tightly in Minimum 3 Layers of Bubble wrap(small-medium size bubble). Do not Tape excessively, as it can lessen the effect of the air bubbles.
2. BOX SELECTION: Not too Big a Box! Select a Sturdy Box which will accommodate just a maximum of 2 inches of space all around the object.
3. PEANUTS: Start to fill the Bottom 2 inches of the Box with Peanuts, not Newspaper(shredded or otherwise), Rags, wee-wee pads, disposable diapers etc.,!
4. PLACEMENT: Position item in Center of box so it will receive the best equal amount of  peanut cushioning...I often place on a Diagonal.
5. NO WIGGLE ROOM: Fill all the sides FIRMLY with peanuts, working your way to the top. Don't scrimp on those peanuts, you want a TIGHT SOLID PACKAGE... THAT'S THE KEY!
6. SHAKE TEST: There should be ABSOLUTELY NO SHAKING Contents when package is sealed closed!
7. DOUBLE BOXING?...Not necessary if packed well, but it is a UPS Shipping/Claim Requirement. It does add about 1 more pound to the weight/Cost. *ALSO, the outer Box must be about 2 inches Larger and that additional space must also be peanut filled.
8. Follow same directions when shipping no more than two items per box. Make sure to bubblewrap each item SEPARATELY.
