what I want to know is,

how many toys 1 cubic metre can fit? or by experience, would that be safer to put in box? or warp up in clothes, or other way?
If your considering your items to be shipped by sea, I'd suggest you buy those plastic tubs (w/ cover) that would fit inside a 1 m3 box space. That way you'll have some sturdy support on your items instead of just using the standard shipping boxes which are just usually made of cartons/thick carboard materials. And in between that box and your plastic tubs is where your clothes can go or any soft materials to fill in the space and provide some cushioning from any bumps and squeezing during shipping. If you'd go this way, you can see for yourself how many toys can fit inside those tubs. These tubs are avaialble almost everywhere but I'd recommend those less tapered type to maximize your cargo space.
