Packing and what you can send

How to pack your parcel

Use a strong, undamaged cardboard box suitable for the parcel’s weight. Wrap individual items, fill empty spaces and seal every edge with parcel tape. Remove old labels and place the new shipping label on a flat, visible surface. Measure and weigh the packed parcel before requesting a quote, and follow the packing guide for step-by-step instructions.

  1. 1

    Take a strong box

    Cardboard without tears or old tape, sized to the contents.

  2. 2

    Wrap and fill

    Wrap each item separately and fill the empty space, so nothing moves.

  3. 3

    Seal every edge

    Tape all seams. Remove old labels — they confuse the sorting line.

  4. 4

    Measure and weigh

    The carrier checks both, and the price follows their figures.

Frequently asked questions about shipping from Italy to Switzerland

All questions

To send a parcel, create an account on our website topparcel.com, enter the sender’s and recipient’s addresses, add the parcel weight and dimensions, and choose an available service and pickup or drop-off option. A customs declaration is required only when customs rules apply, for example for goods not in free circulation in the EU, restricted or commercial goods, shipments crossing a customs border, or certain special territories. Goods in free circulation moving between EU member states normally do not require a customs declaration. After payment, download the shipping labels from your account or email and attach them securely to the parcel. If courier pickup is selected, collection normally takes place on the chosen business day between 09:00 and 17:00.
