How are the model ships packed?

We guarantee the ship will arrive safely with our professional packing. Normally 80% of our ship models will be packed inside a wood crate including Tall ships, Cargo ships, Ocean Liners, Battleships… The rest will be packed inside solid styrofoam such as speedboats, hydroplanes … Depending on distance or fragility of the model we might double-box for more secure.

For example, the below tall ship is individually packed inside a wooden crate. this crate will protect the ship during transportation and make sure the model inside is safe when the box is accidentally turned upside down, dropped or has heavy objects placed on it. Other items are packed in strong carton box or double-box with Styrofoam and/or packing peanut
