Thanks Sue. I have been meaning to message you and ask how you packaged everything, after you once commented you used those big bags.
Oh my gosh, didn't realize it was taking up to 8 months now to arrive.
HI Wendy,
Thanks. This is the exact info I was looking for.
Have a Great Day.
Hi Jenny, I am in Australia and I have always sent my parcels wrapped in black plastic bin bags sealed up with lots of tape. I have not had any issues with them being lost or damaged so far as I know.
I usually do a double layer of bags and then seal with really wide tape so that the whole parcel is covered. I prefer to send this way as a box adds a lot of excess weight.
I always use Sea Mail. Air Mail is too expensive. The only draw back is it can take up to 6 months before my parcels arrive. The minimum weight for Sea Mail is also 2 kg. Hope this helps.
Thanks Amy for your reply. I was actually wondering how people package them ie in a plastic garbage bag all taped up or in an Australia Post bag with lots of tape; or is there a better way
Thanks,
Jenny,
Maybe someone else from Australia will comment here. This is the link on the Forum about post from several places in the world, Australia is on the list. Most of our contributors from Australia send sea mail. We have always received mail from Australia it just takes a bit of time to get here. Thanks for asking.

HI,
I have knitted, crocheted and loomed quite a few squares and would like to post them. Does anyone have any tips on how to package them ready for postage from Australia please?
Jenny
