Secure Packaging Instructions
Proper packaging protects your device in transit. Follow these detailed steps:
Materials Needed
Essential (Must Have):
- Sturdy cardboard box (minimum double-wall corrugated)
- Bubble wrap (at least 50cm x 50cm)
- Anti-static bag (for laptops/tablets—we provide in some areas, or use ziplock bag)
- Packing tape (high-quality, minimum 2" wide)
Recommended:
- Foam sheets or packing peanuts
- Plastic waterproof bag
- "Fragile" stickers
Where to Get Materials: Free packaging available at courier drop-off points (J&T, Ninja Van). Or purchase from MR DIY or hardware stores.
Step-by-Step Packaging
1. Prepare Your Device (5 minutes):
- Power off completely (don't just sleep mode)
- Remove all accessories, external drives, SD cards
- For laptops: Close lid, no items between keyboard and screen
- Clean exterior with dry cloth (prevents loose debris in packaging)
2. First Layer - Device Protection (5 minutes):
- Place device in anti-static bag or plastic bag
- Wrap device with bubble wrap (minimum 2 layers)
- Ensure bubble side faces inward (bubbles against device)
- Tape securely so bubble wrap won't shift
3. Box Preparation (3 minutes):
- Use box at least 5cm larger than device on all sides
- Place 5cm layer of packing material at bottom (peanuts, bubble wrap, or crumpled paper)
4. Device Placement (2 minutes):
- Center wrapped device in box
- Fill all sides with packing material (minimum 5cm on all sides)
- Device should not touch any box wall directly
- Shake box gently—device shouldn't move inside
5. Final Sealing (2 minutes):
- Close box and tape all seams with packing tape
- Apply tape in H-pattern for maximum security
- Attach shipping label on top (we provide printable label)
- Add "Fragile - Electronics" sticker if available
Visual Guide: We email detailed packaging photos with your booking confirmation. Follow it closely.
What NOT to Pack
- Original retail boxes: Too large, provide false security (item moves inside)
- Chargers/accessories: Unless specifically faulty, leave at home (reduces weight/cost)
- Loose items: Remove from laptop bag/case
- Important documents: Remove any papers from laptop bag
- Forgotten SD cards/USB drives: Check all ports

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I track my device during repair? A: You receive tracking numbers for inbound and outbound shipments. Additionally, we send SMS updates at every stage: received, diagnosed, parts ordered, repair in progress, testing complete, shipped back.
Q: What if the repair costs more than initially quoted? A: We contact you via WhatsApp with photos and a revised quote. You can approve the additional work, ask for just the initially quoted repair, or decline (we return the device unrepaired, the diagnosis fee applies, and the return courier is still free).
Q: Can I send my device without a quote first? A: Not recommended. Always book online or WhatsApp us first so we can confirm the device and arrange the return. Walk-in mail deliveries without prior booking may experience delays in processing.
Q: Is my data safe during courier repair? A: We never access your personal data. Repairs are hardware-focused. However, we recommend backing up critical data before shipping as a precaution.
Q: What if my device doesn't boot to show model information? A: Check the label on device bottom or back. Alternatively, WhatsApp us a photo of the device—our team can identify model from appearance. Include any model numbers visible on labels.
Q: Can I use my own courier service? A: Yes. You choose your own courier and are responsible for packaging, any courier insurance, and delivery to our Sunway Geo location. We provide the return shipping for free.
Q: Do you repair devices outside warranty but under AppleCare+/manufacturer warranty? A: We're an independent service center. For devices under active AppleCare+ or manufacturer warranty, we recommend using official channels first (free repairs). Come to us when warranty expired, declined, or you prefer faster service.
Q: What happens if my repair takes longer than estimated? A: We notify you via SMS with revised timeline and reason (e.g., part delayed). You can continue waiting or decline the repair; the return courier is free either way.
