Do Just One Thing

Danny Seo on

When shipping a package, choose a box that closely fits the item instead of one that’s much larger. Oversized boxes often require extra packing materials and end up shipping a lot of empty space -- what the industry calls "shipping air." A properly sized box reduces waste, uses fewer materials and helps lower the fuel needed to transport the package. If the box is slightly larger than necessary, fill the gaps with recycled paper or other reusable materials rather than plastic fillers.
