Best Packing Method for a Binder?

What’s the best way to ship a binder full of cards to someone? Obviously don’t want the cards falling out, but I’m trying to relay a safe packing method to the person who is selling me a binder full. Thanks!

When I moved I first wrapped the pages inside with cling wrap to keep the cards from moving out of the binder and then on the outside of the binder to keep it closed and after that used bubble wrap around the binder to protect it. It worked for my 1000 mile move and I did this with 8 binders and they were all a ok but I didn’t ship them I had them in my trunk so that’s all I can help with :stuck_out_tongue: :grin:

Take 9 pocket pages out of binder, fold the top half of the page down, and the bottom half over top so it’s folded in thirds with no way for the cards to escape durring movement (careful not to damage the cards). After you’ve done this with all pages stack them into a group or multiple groups and shrink wrap them together so they don’t unfold. Place bubble or packing peanuts by the binders rings and place the shrink wrapped pages inside the binder for protection from folding and preventing them from getting damaged by the rings. Place the binder into a priority bubble mailer or similar bagging material to prevent the pages from sliding out. Then ship, or place the package into a flat rate box/external shipping container.

I’ve saranwrapped the pages both inside and outside the binder. If outside I left them flat.

+3 for cling/saran wrap. One - two layer each page. I use that stuff when packing almost everything now.
