    This document provides packaging guidelines for parcels being processed through an automated sorting system. It distinguishes between conveyable and non-conveyable parcels, with conveyable parcels needing to be rectangular or square-shaped with tight packaging and labels on the largest flat surface. Examples of poor packaging that could cause parcels to get stuck or labels to be unreadable include empty spaces in packaging, folded or small labels, stretched or distorted labels, labels with poor print quality, and labels not on the largest flat surface. Adhering to the guidelines helps ensure parcels can be properly sorted by the automated system.
