How to calculate circumference + length
Length:
Length is the longest side of the package. The longest side of the package in the example below is 30 cm (this may not exceed 55 cm).
Circumference:
Circumference is calculated by adding the length of the two other sides (width and height) together and multiplying the result with 2. In the example below, width and height are respectively 15 cm and 20 cm. The circumference will therefore be (15 cm + 20 cm) x 2 = 70 cm.
Length + Circumference:
Length + Circumference will therefore be 30 cm + 70 cm = 100 cm.
(this may not exceed 120 cm for daoHOME shipments and 200 cm for daoSHOP shipments).

Prohibited and restricted content

Packaging requirements
It's your responsibility as a sender to provide adequate and secure packaging, which will ensure that your shipment is eligible for compensation in case any damage is caused during shipping. Secure packaging allows for stacking, helps to withstand shocks, pressure and vibrations/shaking during transportation and storage.
Proper robust packaging prevents the package from causing damage to other shipments, dao or third parties. In other words, packaging must be suitable for transport, processing and sorting in automatic sorting hubs.
Porcelain, glass and other fragile items must be packed using strong packaging made of quality cardboard and protected by inner packaging that fits the nature of the contents, such as bubble wrap or the proper amount of polystyrene chips. Make sure that no collision can happen between items in the shipment or between items and the sides of the packaging.
Liquids and easily condensable substances must be placed in containers completely secured against leakage. Each individual container must be protected with inner packaging that can absorb the liquid in the case of any damage to the container. Might be a good idea to place those items in a plastic bag before placing them in the cardboard box as well.
Technical equipment, including computer- and laser equipment and similar are recommend to be shipped in the original packaging with the molded shock-absorbing inner material to secure the contents inside the box during transport. must be shipped in a solid box and must be packed inside the box with tightly molded material, e.g. flamingo. Any technical equipment must be secured adequately against impact and prevented from moving inside the packaging during transport.
Note! dao is not required to check or approve your packaging. If dao deems the packaging not to be adequate at any time during delivery, then dao is entitled to interrupt transport and ask the sender to come and pick the shipment up from one of the sorting hubs.
dao may decide to unload, destroy or dispose of any such package without any liability regarding compensation and at sender's expense and risk.
