Candle shipping guide

Scented candle packaging and shipping notes

What scented candle brands should flag before packing, carton planning and freight handoff from China.

Scented candle packaging should be planned with the shipping route in mind. A freight forwarder, warehouse or customs broker may ask for product details before the goods move, especially when the candle is scented, glass, heavy or part of a mixed gift set.

The final shipping rule should come from your logistics route. ZiiBoxes can prepare packaging-side packing notes, carton details and handoff information.
