What should I write instead of “make shipping cheaper”?
List the included item references, what packaging to keep or remove, and what must remain protected. Ask how the finished parcel and proposed route will be reviewed before dispatch. Confirm the selected service and its current fee in your account.
Decide what matters before requesting packing
A presentation box might be important for a gift but unnecessary for another item. A shaped bag, fragile accessory or stiff cap may need protection that a folded T-shirt does not. Set the priority for each item; a blanket “remove everything” instruction can conflict with those needs.
Superbuy’s official service list describes packaging removal, simple packing, vacuum packing and shoe-box folding. These are distinct choices, with different handling consequences. Read the current descriptions and choose only what fits the actual contents.

Write an item-by-item brief
These are editorial examples, not a promise that every instruction is available or that staff can change a parcel at every stage. Ask support to confirm the brief if its requirements conflict.
| Field | Example instruction — adapt before using |
|---|---|
| Include | Only the item references listed in this request. |
| Keep | Keep the presentation box for item A and protection around the hardware on item B. |
| Remove | Remove only the disposable outer seller packaging for item C, if safe. |
| Compression | Ask me before compressing any item whose shape matters. |
| Review | Show finished dimensions, measured weight, selected services and proposed route before the next approval step. |
Clarify the review and approval step
In a 2026 Reddit discussion, users describe different experiences of how Shipping Expert presents a route recommendation. That is a reason to ask what you will approve, rather than assume you will receive an identical menu of choices.
Ask whether the request creates a parcel, who selects the route, whether it will proceed automatically and what happens if you need a change. Do not assume that a community report of saving money predicts a saving for your contents.

Review the result against your brief
- Match every included item to the requested list.
- Confirm important packaging was retained and any removal was authorized.
- Check the completed parcel dimensions and weight, not just the original item estimates.
- Read the proposed route’s billing basis and contents restrictions.
- Ask about repacking availability and its fee before requesting another change.
ADAPT THIS TO YOUR OWN RECORDS
Example packing request
Please pack items [references] for [destination]. Keep [specific protection/boxes], remove [specific disposable packaging] only if safe, and do not compress [items]. Please confirm the service fee and whether I can review the finished dimensions, weight and route before dispatch. Contact me if these instructions conflict.
