Please note that the free consolidation/repacking is limited to a time allowance of 1 minute of repacking time per each package included in the shipment and applies only to shipments shipped out by AmForward.com. The free consolidation time allowance is typically sufficient for most shipments requiring a simple removal of original shipping packaging or simple non-sealed product packaging such as shoe boxes, and then repacking the items in an appropriately sized shipping box.
Any request that extends processing time of a shipment beyond the free consolidation time allowance, such as removal of sealed product packaging, individual product price tags, plastic bags from clothing, and/or packing large number of items tightly in a shipping box to maximize shipping box content, or where custom shipping box crafting and packing is required, is considered optional "extended processing" and is billed in addition to the regular fees.
The free consolidation/repacking time allowance does not apply to shipments picked up at AmForward.com warehouse including shipments shipped using customer provided shipping labels. Any additional processing for such shipments including removal or covering of original shipping labels, repacking or packing tape reinforcement, will be billed as "extended processing" in addition to the regular processing fees.
