Measuring coconut and herbs

When recipes call for a measuring cup (or portions there of) of shredded coconut or herbs, should you pack or compress the cocunut or herbs in the cup, sort of like you would brown sugar, or should it be measured "loosely"?

Thanks, LeAnn

Somewhere in between. You don't want air spaces, but you also don't want it packed firmly.
