vPost will repack your package by minimising the height of the package, thus reducing the volumetric weight. The process of repacking will be placing the smaller package into one single box.

Example: Height of package being cut down

Please note that we are not able to remove or modify any part/content from its retail packaging when we repack.

Example:

– Removal of batteries from the retail packaging.

This is to ensure not to have your original package contents being compromised

Here are some scenarios in which we will not repack

• Where the difference between the actual weight and volumetric weight is under 2kg
• Containing leather products
• Containing products with flammable or alcoholic contents
• Marked ‘fragile’
