This Packaging Guide sets out GOFO Netherlands requirements and recommendations for preparing shipments. Proper packaging protects goods, reduces damage during handling, sorting and transit, and supports on-time delivery.

Compliance with this guide is mandatory for all shippers using GOFO Netherlands services. GOFO Netherlands ships parcels through carrier networks that may use automated sorting equipment. Packaging that does not meet minimum standards may be delayed, rejected, returned, or require manual handling at the shipper’s cost.

These guidelines set out the minimum packaging requirements. Customers remain responsible for selecting packaging that is appropriate for the nature, value, and fragility of their goods
