Special Packaging Needs<br />

If you ship the following items, consider their special packaging needs.<br />

Irregularly Shaped Items <strong>and</strong> Bare Metals<br />

Tape the address label on a flat surface of the item being shipped. Cover the label<br />

with clear tape. Do not use “flying tags” attached by string or metal. Blunt all<br />

sharp or protruding edges with taped-on, corrugated cardboard pieces. Protect the<br />

surface of the item as needed. An Additional H<strong>and</strong>ling charge will apply. See page<br />

125 for details.<br />

Fabric <strong>and</strong> Wallpaper<br />

Rolled goods travel best when shipped in corrugated boxes. If a fabric or wallpaper<br />

roll is shipped in a bag, it is recommended to use a bag with a minimum thickness<br />

of six mils. Make sure the bag is tightly wrapped <strong>and</strong> taped against the roll to<br />

reduce the risk of tearing. A tail on an item shipped in a bag must be compressed<br />

to the body of the item using tape. Place the address label on a flat surface of the<br />

item being shipped. Place duplicate address labels inside cores or between top<br />

layers of material. An Additional H<strong>and</strong>ling charge may apply. See page 125 for details.<br />

Tires<br />

Apply a wide b<strong>and</strong> of pressure-sensitive tape through the center <strong>and</strong> completely<br />

around the body of the tire so that the tape is attached to itself. Attach your address<br />

label to the tape b<strong>and</strong> where it covers the tread. Cover the entire label with clear<br />

tape. An Additional H<strong>and</strong>ling charge will apply. See page 125 for details.<br />

Hazardous Materials<br />

Please see pages 127 to 128 for service restrictions related to shipping Hazardous<br />

Materials <strong>and</strong> International Dangerous Goods. For additional information, refer to<br />

the <strong>UPS</strong> <strong>Guide</strong> for Shipping Ground <strong>and</strong> Air Hazardous Materials at <strong>UPS</strong>.com ® .<br />

Bundled or Strapped Boxes<br />

Only same-sized boxes may be strapped together. Use a minimum of four crisscrossed<br />

b<strong>and</strong>s, two in each direction. An address label must be placed on each<br />

box. When strapping boxes together, each box must be strong enough to hold<br />

the total weight of the strapped bundle. For example, if two 15-pound boxes are<br />

b<strong>and</strong>ed together into a 30-pound package, both components should be in boxes<br />

with at least a 30-pound weight capacity. An Additional H<strong>and</strong>ling charge may<br />

apply. See page 125 for details.<br />

Packages Weighing More Than 70 Pounds<br />

Packaging materials need to be evaluated carefully for packages weighing more<br />

than 70 pounds.<br />

– Boxes need to be of strong construction, preferably with seams that are stitched<br />

or stapled, not glued. Identify the strength of the box by checking the Box Maker’s<br />

Certificate to make sure the size limit <strong>and</strong> gross weight limit are not exceeded.<br />

For recommendations on determining the proper size <strong>and</strong> maximum gross weight<br />

limit of a box for individual package shipments, refer to the <strong>UPS</strong> Box Strength<br />

<strong>Guide</strong>lines chart on page 3.<br />
