Packing Tips for the Kolkata to Rajkot Route
Since Kolkata to Rajkot is a cross-country lane connecting East and West India, parcels pass through more handling hubs. Use a rigid double-walled box, cushion fragile items on all sides, and seal seams with H-taping so the package survives the longer journey to Gujarat.

- Right-sized, sturdy box with no empty space
- Cushioning for fragile items (extra padding for this longer lane)
- Clear Kolkata sender and Rajkot recipient labels with pincodes
- Accurate contents and value declaration
