So anything more valuable or less impact resistant than a rubber duck should not be shipped? No computer parts, no art, no glassware or porcelain, no tools more complicated than a hammer, and even then the goons might break the handle?
What is the point of your profession? A pittance in, emissions and waste out?
Generally trying to stay alive, pay rent, afford healthcare, maybe care for their family, for the employees. Blame the massive corporations trying to keep costs as low as possible but trying to have the least amount of drivers delivering the most amount of packages at the lowest pay possible.
I’ve wrapped plenty of sensitive electronics that I’d be comfortable throwing at a wall. Get a larger box than you think you need, some foam wrapping/bubble wrap from another package and use that to form a protective core. Fill the rest of the box with lightly crumpled scrap paper, or packing peanuts if you have them. It ain’t rocket science.
You just have to assume in the first truck the package will sit underneath seven other heavy packages, while the second truck will be completely empty as your package rattles around and bangs against the walls. Anything else is foolishness, you know damn well those trucks aren’t individually fastening every box for a couple euros of gross revenue per delivery.

Pretty sure they meant the package, proper bubble wrapping would handle the abuse. That’s on the person boxing it all up.

Just wrap it in bubble wrap.
