Instructions for packing scuba equipment. How to pack scuba diving wetsuits, masks, snorkels, and fins
There are many different components and accessories in scuba diving equipment. We have prepared a list with tips on packing scuba equipment for shipping to avoid any damages during transportation.
- Protect each item properly. Take bubble wrap for covering regulators, dive masks, snorkel sets, fins and other accessories.
- If you decide to ship dive knives, lights, watches, waterproof cameras, or dive computers, you need to place them in their original bags to ensure maximum protection.
- Place the items in a scuba gear bag and nest the bag in a cardboard box. Add extra cushioning materials to fill any voids.
- Close the box and seal with adhesive tape.

Pressurised scuba tanks or other compressed gas cylinders containing air or other non-flammable gases are considered as dangerous goods. Therefore, make sure the scuba tank you’re shipping is empty and follow these packing steps to insure its safe transportation.
- Disconnect the valve from the cylinder and empty the scuba tank from air.
- Bubble wrap the valve and the tank separately and fix it with adhesive tape.
- Place the scuba tank and valve in the cardboard box. Add cushioning materials like foam, bubble wrap or packing paper.
