Umbrellas must be individually wrapped in bubble wrap to prevent scratches. Avoid pallet stacking; use sturdy shelving. Ensure storage areas are dry, well-ventilated, and free from direct sunlight.

Use protective padding for individual units and label designated zones for inventory management. Secure packaging prevents damage during transit and ensures easy retrieval during peak seasons.
