How much crinkle paper do I need?

If you ask around on the internet you will find all of these technical ways to figure out how much basket shred paper that you need. The issue is, every package and basket is different, and so is the size of the item going inside of it. In short, there's no foolproof way to figure out how much shredded tissue paper you need. What we like to tell our customers is to pack the box or basket with enough crinkle paper that makes you comfortable. You can make the items inside as snug or as loose as you want them to. If the item inside is something breakable we suggest air on the side of caution and pack it snug to reduce the chance of it breaking while it's moving from place to place.
