Shopping on Chinese platforms like Taobao, 1688, or Weidian is exciting, but international shipping costs can quickly add up. OOPBuy’s rehearsal packaging service helps you optimize expenses by consolidating and repacking items efficiently. Here’s how to use it to your advantage.
What Is OOPBuy Rehearsal Packaging?
Rehearsal packaging is a smart service where OOPBuy’s team measures and repacks your orders to minimize volumetric weight—a key factor in shipping fees. Instead of paying for bulky packaging, your items are tightly consolidated, often reducing costs by 20-50%.
Step 1: Submit Your Orders to OOPBuy
After purchasing items from your favorite Chinese stores, input the order details into your OOPBuy account. Provide tracking numbers so their warehouse can receive and organize your parcels. Pro tip: Label items clearly to avoid delays.
Step 2: Request Rehearsal Packaging
Once all items arrive at OOPBuy’s warehouse, request rehearsal packaging via your dashboard. The team will unpack, measure, and combine your purchases into the smallest possible package. You’ll receive a updated weight/volume quote before payment.
Step 3: Choose the Best Shipping Method
With accurate post-consolidation dimensions, compare shipping options (e.g., DHL, EMS, or sea freight). Lighter volumetric weight means cheaper rates. OOPBuy also removes unnecessary retail packaging, further cutting costs.
Why Rehearsal Packaging Saves Money
International carriers charge by volumetric or actual weight—whichever is higher. Bulky boxes inflate fees even for lightweight items. Rehearsal packaging ensures you only pay for the space your products truly occupy.
Extra Tips for Maximum Savings
- Combine multiple orders into one shipment.
- Avoid sellers who use oversized boxes.
- Remove unnecessary accessories (e.g., gift boxes).
- Use OOPBuy’s shipping calculator for pre-purchase estimates.
By leveraging OOPBuy’s rehearsal packaging, you turn chaotic multiple shipments into one cost-efficient parcel. Start optimizing your Taobao hauls today!
