The right packaging can keep products safe during storage and delivery. It can also ensure that products last for a longer time, particularly fresh produce.
Unfortunately, not everyone is on the same page when it comes to deciding how to properly package an item according to its size and weight. Just take a look at these 30 packaging fails to get an idea of what we mean.
1. Individually packed sodas
The sodas are probably packed this way to ensure that the surface doesnโt get scratched or the storeโs just giving its customers an extra container. Either way, it doesnโt make any sense.


2. A bag inside a box
For someone whoโs eager to eat his chocolates, this oneโs definitely frustrating. After you open a box, youโll see another pack which you have to tear open just to get to your chocolates.


3. Donโt try to justify it.
We get that small packages are easy to steal, but this? That much plastic is just unacceptable.


4. Extra packaging for the extra premium strawberries
This strawberry must be so precious. Imagine the effort put into making sure each piece looks exquisite and expensive.


5. Redundant
So, this person ordered bubble wraps. Amazon was feeling extra generous so they decided to wrap his protective packaging with protective packaging.


6. Just when you think youโve seen every packaging fail
At first, you might think that the box is empty. But lo and behold, thereโs a pack of batteries at the bottom. Way to go, Amazon.


7. Extra protection
To ensure this productโs safety, it was put inside a box. Then, a couple of airbags were placed on top of it to make sure that it wouldnโt break or get damaged along the way.


8. Fit for the lazy
If thereโs one person whoโd find this packaging great, itโs a lazy person. Whoever made it decided to take the fruit out of its own packaging to put it inside another packaging.


9. A new way to pack sliced bread
But what if you need more than one slice? Youโd surely end up with lots of trash if you get more than one.


10. Not going anywhere
It looks like someone got tired of lining up these tubs vertically. He felt the need to be extra creative and extremely careless with redundant packaging.


11. What a small knife
Proper packaging is essential to ensure the safety of consumers. This knife, however, is far too small for its packaging.


12. Paper wrapped bubble wrap
Amazon doesnโt really like its bubble wraps getting ruined during the delivery. The company makes sure to always wrap their bubble wraps before putting them in boxes.


13. Peeled bananas, anyone?
This store takes its customersโ convenience seriously. It looks like the management doesnโt want their consumers to spend a lot of time peeling their bananas.


14. All that plastic for that tiny product
Whoever made this one clearly doesnโt care about the environment. The packaging is an extremely bad choice for a product that tiny.


15. Pointless
This is probably one of the most pointless packagings youโll ever see in your life. Itโs just sad.


16. Having a hard time peeling pineapples?
This store probably thinks that itโs giving a solution for people who have a hard time peeling pineapples. In reality, itโs just wasting plastic.


17. Whatโs the point?
This packaging wonโt just ruin the icing on those donuts. Itโll create a lot of waste, too. Imagine how much plastic youโll be throwing away if you buy a dozen of those donuts.


18. The oranges
Imagine the effort put into peeling those oranges and putting them inside plastic cups. Yes, itโs quite pointless.


19. The insane packaging for a single pill
The way this pill is packaged is similar to the Russian doll. With that amount of packaging, someone might die from allergies because it took too long to open.


20. Why buying online is more expensive
One of the reasons why buying online costs more is the packaging of the products. This particular memory card is proof of that.


21. Just protecting the light bulbs
Light bulbs arenโt the easiest to ship out because they are very fragile. That fact, however, doesnโt justify the amount of paper used for this packaging.


22. When you want to reduce your waster
This person ordered reusable straws to lessen his plastic waste. Whoever used that much plastic to wrap the straws looks like taunting him.


23. For two boxes of tea
This man ordered two boxes of tea. They came with over 30 feet of bubble wrap.


24. Running out of small boxes
Amazon has to be trolling everyone who orders for them. Itโs quite impossible for such a big company to not have small boxes.


25. 20 envelopes for 20 copper tubes
It would have been wiser to put the tubes in one envelope. The companyโs policy is clearly not into looking after the environment.


26. Concealer
Amazon isnโt the only one running out of boxes. Sephora is experiencing the same problem. That box for a 0.05oz concealer- what a waste!


27. An obsession with plastic
One, jelly beans arenโt really supposed to be packaged separately. Two, they arenโt supposed to be individually wrapped in plastic.


28. Do the math
This man ordered 700 screws. Each piece came individually wrapped.


29. These organic oranges
Even if you like to eat organically grown fruits, youโll probably have a hard time eating these organic oranges. Just imagine peeling each plastic packaging and youโll understand why.


30. Ironic
Ordering these biodegradable sponges might make you feel good. Seeing that much plastic wrapper with the sponges, however, is a totally different story.
