Thank you for viewing. Please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned about the item being stored at home. Regarding packaging, I will put the items together in a plastic bag for waterproofing before shipping, but I will not reinforce them with cardboard, etc. If you would like reinforcement, please contact me before purchasing, and I will accommodate you. Please note that if the size increases due to the thickness of the reinforcement, the shipping cost will increase accordingly.
