Pet supply brands sell a wide variety of products, from pet food and toys to fragile items like aquariums, each type coming with its own shipping challenges.

Some pet supplies, particularly pet food and bulk items like litter, can be heavy and bulky, leading to higher shipping costs, while other, more delicate items like glass aquariums or ceramic pet bowls can be easily damaged during shipping. Shipping pet food may require compliance with specific regulations, including labeling, expiration dates, and ingredient disclosures, which can be complex. And exposure to temperature fluctuations or damage to packaging can lead to products spoiling or becoming contaminated.

Shipping protection ensures packages arrive safely and securely, and can help pet supply brands save on costly claims and reshipments.
