Packaging & Shipping I pack all items securely using refurbished and reused packing materials whenever possible. I also make some of my own boxes and packaging for records and music sheets, designed specifically to protect these items in transit. It may look a little different from standard mailers, but it’s sturdy, protective, and helps keep shipping costs down for both of us while reducing waste.
