How to Used to them

If You sell alot lower priced items and Most the items are Different Sizes. Just get as Much Cardboard as you can. With a Box Cutter you make can Make own Box to any size you Need. Books & Records and other Flat Items. Works great with, because you Can make your Boxes as thick and as Strong as you Need to. And Make them where the item won't move and be stiff, so can't bend.  Instead of Using a box the Record or book just slides around in, which ends up damaging them anyways.

Glass Items, Rarely need Bubble Wrap or shipping Peanuts. Double Box them. Place item in a Plastic Store Bag. And then Use Soft Recycled Cardboard around the Object. The Cardboard is not Stiff and Is very Soft, Like a cusion. Place item in a box. And Use Plastic Store bags to fill up the Space (Hand Crush them into a Ball). So Item Can't move around.  Those Bags are Extremely Light weight, soft, free, and Do a great job. Use them instead of shipping peanuts. Then Place that Box into a just barely Larger Box.. and filled up the space again with Plastic Store Bags. Your Box will be Light weight. And With Very Good Odds it will get there Safely.  

Some People thinks it takes to long, to Make your boxes. Like anything else.....  first time Maybe little longer, after a few times, takes no Time at all. Nice thing is... it's Cheap and You Can Make the Boxes to the Correct size you need and As stiff and Rigid as Needed to ship your item safely.
